LIT Sublimation Paper 100sheets 11x17in 110gsm - Reliable Heat Press

Our review of LIT Sublimation Paper 100sheets 11x17in 110gsm finds it a practical choice for crafters and small businesses who need a budget-friendly way to transfer vibrant designs to light-colored fabrics and poly coated blanks. The single biggest reason to buy is its consistent color transfer and ink savings: the paper absorbs and holds sublimation ink like a sponge, dries quickly and releases ink precisely at heat, producing crisp lines and vivid colors when used with an inkjet sublimation printer and a heat press.

Key Features

• Easy to use: The paper moves from computer to printer to heat press with straightforward setup for common inkjet sublimation printers.
• Smooth printing: Its elastic, sponge-like structure recovers after passing printer feed wheels, helping maintain flatness for cleaner prints.
• Vibrant color fidelity: Minimum water content and no starch coating preserve true colors and crisp lines during transfer.
• Fast drying and ink saving: High absorbency and low moisture mean quicker drying times and less wasted ink without smudging.
• High transfer rate: The paper releases ink precisely in the printed position, improving transfer accuracy on coated blanks and light fabrics.
• Tabloid size: 11x17in sheets give space for larger designs and multiple smaller images in one pass.

Who It's For

This paper is aimed at hobbyists, crafters, and small-run sellers who use inkjet sublimation printers and a heat press to make personalized T-shirts, pillow cases, bags, mouse pads and poly coated sublimation blanks such as mugs and tumblers. It suits users who value vivid colors, crisp lines and efficient ink usage for holiday gifts and custom merchandise.

Those who should look elsewhere include people who need heavy stock to avoid printer jams with sensitive machines or anyone intending to print on dark fabrics without proper coatings. Also ensure you use true sublimation ink and poly coated blanks; the paper will not transfer on uncoated items.
