    NOT PRINTING FULL MUG - PLEASE HELP

    how far from the handles you can print? some press just cant do it. most of the cheap ones can print about 1.5cm from handle on each side.

    The ink should sit on the shiny surface of the paper, if it's saturating you won't get a good image, you're wasting ink and your paper probably isn't suitable :-)

    NOT PRINTING FULL MUG - PLEASE HELP

    Personally I wouldn't use cheap papers. I did test a few cheaper ones a few years back with dire results.
    I have always used Xpres, it's cheap by comparison and gives excellent images.
    That said, Sawgrass recently informed me that they ONLY recommend TruePix for use through the Ricoh 5050 so I'll be trying that.

    How warm are your mugs when they go in, the bottom of the mug is going to take longer to heat up.
    How close to the handle are you trying to get?
