The oven route is the way I’d started to think was going to be the best option.
I’ve had good results with my halogen oven, much better than the mug press.
And already have a few mug wraps, and...

Looks like a no go on a direct to mug process then. Thanks guys..

Would it be better to save the money from buying 4 decent mug presses, and put it towards something else though? Trawling through online hasn’t shown anything regarding direct to mug printing apart...

Are there any decent print direct to mug processes? Obviously without spending an absolute fortune. I presently sublimating to mugs using an halogen oven, but the queries I’m getting at the moment...

Hi Mike,
The Press was purchased new, but I had issues initially with the element being faulty, Being new, it took me a while to realise ‘I didn’t just need to get the settings correct’ and the...

I just tried another test with the same image.
I put the paper on the mug and put it in the press at 110c for 120 seconds. Immediately I changed the settings to 165c for 120 seconds and the...

Think I might have to get an oven. My results are still poor.
As recommended I’ve tried 180c for 180 seconds and the top and bottom look good but in the middle the blacks come out brown....

I’d also hoped that I would of been able to print nearer the handle, even though the element reaches near the handle the heat transfer is poor and prints are appear faded near the handle and base. ...

I had tried preheating previously and this hadn’t appeared to work, but this was when I was using the faulty element. I have to remember everything I thought I’d learnt previously whilst using that...

After advise from Adam I altered the settings and after testing again I started to think the mugs had been so cold the base hasn’t been warming up sufficiently. The design I’d been using had pale...

Thanks. I do that today. I did originally have a faulty wrap, which would constantly rise 13c over the set temperature whilst pressing. If the press is faulty as well it would explain a lot.

I’ve checked the settings for C and F and it’s definitely on C. I’ve found that anything over 175c is turning the blacks to brown. I’ve also seen this commented elsewhere. I believe it may be a...

I’m using a Galaxy mug press with a Ricoh 3110 using Sublisplash inks.
Ever time I set this up to use, the settings are different.
I even went to the trouble of printing the previous settings...
