Printing with Fluorescent Colors
Instantly transform your iColor® printer into a fluorescent printer where the printed images produced will
glow brightly under UV light. The upgrade kit consists of 3 toner cartridges (CMY) and are shipped in 3
separate boxes. Simply remove and store the standard CMY toner cartridges and swap with the fluorescent kit
to instantly print with UV sensitive toner while using the standard black cartridge in place. The white cartridge
that shipped with your iColor® 540 printer can also be used if a white overprint is required.
Operating on the same application principles as standard toner that ships with your machine, you can print
and/or press onto virtually any surface using the appropriate transfer media – or print directly onto paper,
transparencies and label stock. Be sure to design your graphics with bright colors – avoid dark or black colors
(unless specifically wanted), as those will not fluoresce well and may not look desirable as a final product.
Most fluorescent images will be placed on a black or dark colored garment, so black would not be suggested in
these cases anyway.

Printing with Dye Sublimation Toner
Instantly transform your iColor® printer into a dye sublimation printer. The upgrade kit consists of 4 toner
cartridges (CMYK) and are shipped in 4 separate boxes. Simply remove and store the standard cartridges and
swap with the dye sublimation kit to instantly print and sublimate on coated materials.
Operating on the same application principles as standard ink sublimation systems, you must press onto white
100% polyester or sublimation coated materials for best results. 50/50 cotton poly blends may also be used
for a lighter, vintage look. There is no white overprint option with dye sublimation, only CMYK prints are
possible.
The iColor® Dye Sublimation Upgrade Kit has several unique advantages suited for a production environment:
1)
Vastly faster print speeds: 26 pages per minute vs 34 pages per hour for ink (photo mode)
2)
No clogged heads resulting from non-use. Toner based systems do not have this maintenance issue.
3)
Longer expiration period
4)
Much higher page yield: 3,000 pages standard toner vs 350 pages for starter ink
