I have a single mug press which i got from Xpres. I am using their mugs and paper and the Ricoh GX7000.
I am pressing the mugs at 180degrees for 180 secs.
The problem appears to be at the bottom of the mug. The colours especially the darker ones are either blurring or going a brown colour or sometimes not showing at all. The pressure is farly high. I did a few mugs when i first had the press and they appeared fine but recently I have wasted more than i would like with this problem. The only way i have found to reduce the problem slightly is to make the image not overhang the bottom of the mug.
However I would like to offer full height prints and any help you can give would be much appreciated.
I have added a few pics. Sorry some are a bit blurry.
Thanks
Dave.
