The model is GB1823 — the High Effects Digital Printer for Sublimation Paper Using. It is an automatic flatbed digital printer designed to print high-quality, multicolor images onto sublimation paper for subsequent heat transfer to polyester textiles and coated substrates.
The printer supports a maximum printing width of 1.8 meters, making it suitable for large-format sublimation paper and large production runs.
Rated printing speed is up to 60 square meters per hour, depending on print mode, resolution, RIP settings and media used.
The GB1823 is equipped with double Epson 5113 print heads for consistent multicolor output.
This model is designed for sublimation workflows: use heat-transfer (sublimation) inks and compatible sublimation paper. Use inks recommended or certified by the supplier/manufacturer to ensure color stability and avoid damaging the Epson 5113 heads.
Operating voltage is AC 220V, 50–60 Hz. The listed power range is 200–2500 W. Always provide a stable, properly grounded power supply; consider a surge protector or UPS for production environments.
Machine dimensions: 3.07 m (L) × 0.75 m (W) × 1.38 m (H). Packing size: 3.25 m × 0.95 m × 0.95 m. Net weight: approximately 300 kg.
The GB1823 is compatible with common RIP software and standard printer drivers used for industrial sublimation workflows. For best results, request the specific driver and recommended RIP from the supplier to ensure correct color management and workflow integration.
The printer is automatic and user-friendly, but professional installation and initial training are recommended. Availability of onsite setup and training varies by supplier — confirm with your vendor at the time of purchase.
Regular maintenance includes print head cleaning (automatic/manual routines), using recommended inks and media, keeping the environment dust-free, checking and replacing maintenance parts (wipers, capping stations) as needed, and periodic inspection of electrical and mechanical components.
For banding, missing nozzles or color shifts: run nozzle checks and head cleaning routines, verify ink supply and flow, check RIP settings and color profiles, ensure stable power, and inspect for clogged or damaged nozzles. Contact technical support for persistent issues.
Typical consumables include sublimation inks, sublimation paper, maintenance fluids, cleaning kits, wipers and caps. Wear parts include print head maintenance components; keep spare inks and basic maintenance parts on hand. For print head replacement (Epson 5113) consult the supplier for availability and cost.
The GB1823 prints onto sublimation paper. Final image transfer to fabrics or hard substrates is achieved by heat transfer (sublimation) onto polyester textiles or specially coated items — it does not perform the heat transfer step itself.
The printer has a compact industrial footprint for its capacity (3.07 m × 0.75 m) but weighs ~300 kg and requires 220V power and a stable production area. It's suitable for small-to-medium production shops rather than typical home environments.
Warranty terms and support packages vary by seller and region. Ask your supplier for warranty period, what is covered (heads, electronic parts, onsite support), and availability of spare parts and service before purchase.
