Like all Libratory services and offerings, the sublimation printer is available to all full access library cardholders. Patrons under 18 may only use the Libratory with permission from their guardian; patrons under 14 require the same permission and must be supervised in the Libratory at all times by their responsible guardian.

Our staff is happy to show you the basics!

The only fees for using the sublimation printer and heat presses are based on the materials you consume. Prints are $1.00 each; one free print is included with each transfer item you purchase. Mugs for transfer cost $7, and mouse pads for transfer cost $5.

No, we do not provide this service.

Use of the sublimation printing equipment is by appointment only. Appointments run a maximum of 2 hours in length. To set up an appointment, simply call the Libratory at (219) 769-3541 ext. 354, or email us at lab@lcplin.org.

The sublimation printer can print most conventional image files (JPEG, TIFF, PNG, PDF, etc.) To ensure quality printing, the image should be at least 300dpi.

The sublimation printer can use paper up to 11"x17", with a live area of 10"x16". The flat heat press has a 15"x15" bed.
