They won't work. Dye sub inks work by dyeing a polymer coating. Dye
sub onto bare metal will not transfer at all.

Hi Steve,
I beg to disagree with you! Sorry! I went to show in April. There was a
company there that had a modified Epson printer running a large dye sub
conversion. They were able to print pictures and graphics on "ANY SURFACE".
Technology changes at light speed these days. To prove their point they were printing
their logo on aluminum sided coffee mugs. I asked about doing PCB's and they
said they were working with someone to come out with a stand alone unit to
print directly on PCB's. They said it should be available to the general public
by late spring. When I get the announcement I will post it here!
