Troubleshooting and Tips
Do not apply too much pressure to these photo slates as they will crack in the press.
If you are not getting even results across the full surface of the photo slate we suggest recommend using a thin silicone matt here (roughly 1.5mm thick) that is contact with the printing surface when pressing. This will help to take care of any minor differences in the surface level of the photo slate helping you create consistent transfer prints.
If heating face up with this silicone heat mat you will need to change the heating time to roughly 5 minutes rather than the time mentioned below.
Please Note: Due to the natural composition of slate, slight variations in size, shape, texture, and edge finish are completely normal and to be expected. These natural characteristics are part of what makes each photo slate unique. All sublimation photo slates—regardless of manufacturer—may differ slightly from the stated dimensions. As such, minor discrepancies will not be considered defects and are not eligible for refunds or replacements.
Troubleshooting & Tips
Troubleshooting & Tips
We have tested these photo slates and recommend pressing them upside down so that the heat goes through the back of the photo slate. Heating the paper directly can cause the paper to burn and the result will not be as required.
If you are not getting good results by heating through the slate you can also heat the slate face up i.e. heating the sublimation paper directly. However if you are doing this please ensure you halve the heating time listed below. e.g. if it says 8 minutes change this to 4 minutes.
We always recommend using our 2mm thin silicone FAB Pad so that you can sublimate on the rough edges of the slate to create a seamless image.
Larger slates are generally not suitable for clamshell presses as placing the slate too close to the hinged area can apply too much pressure and crack the slate. Swing away presses are best suited for this.
We also recommend pre-heating slates if they have been stored in a colder area as the sudden temperature change can cause cracking.
Important Note: The times and temperatures below apply only to the equipment listed in the Specifications tab. These are guideline settings based on tests we've run using various machines to reflect typical customer setups. Your results may vary depending on your equipment, so some trial and error may be needed. Please contact us if you're unsure, as we can't be responsible for issues caused by incorrect settings.
