    Dye sublimation printing should work well for jewelry purposes, as
    it highly resistant to fading from sunlight. High quality photos are
    often printed with dye sub methods because it offers a broader color
    spectrum, and better blending of shades. Inkjet printers print one
    color per pixel, whereas dye sub printing can vary in shade from one
    side of a pixel to the other side, when necessary. Dye sub printing
    is used extensively in making printed coffe cups, novelties, t
    shirts, hats, etc... Sony makes a line of dye sub printers, as well
    as Alpine, which is one of the very few printers that uses white ink
    for accurate color blending.
