    Ceramic Printing modification

    Anyone knows of where I can buy the necessary materials to convert an existing machine to print on ceramic transfer paper? If someone could point me to a suitable site (not one that already sells pre-modified machines, but one that sells the stuff and explains how to do it) that would be great.

    Cheers!

      the information you seek is very hard to find. there are lots of companies selling these printers, and they sell the materials too. you only need to buy ceramic developers and ceramic toners and you can modify yourself the printer. i modified 2 printers already. it is not a hard process, but there are some things that you should know to have the best quality. please ensure that the printer you are trying to modify is suitable for this to save lots of headaches.

          Thanks for your input. Could you recommend a supplier for those ceramic supplies? And what machines did you choose to modify?

          Cheers!

              hello. there are 2 nice companies. Macchine per fotoceramica - Attrezzature per fotoceramica | Unicolor and Keramik Toner, Keramik Laserkopierer, Keramik Drucker, Glas Toner - www.ceramictoners.com
              both companies have everything you need. of course it is hard to get specific information. so after conversion you have to be smart and search.
              2 days ago i modified a new ricoh mpc 2003. it is working ok, but it needs some adjustments with black density. but a all is working ok. service manual needed for this, but i dont have it yet...
