Hi again guys, I've been playing around with printing mugs for a few days and they have come out ok.
Although I have noticed the top, bottom and near the handle seem to fade out toward the edges.

am I doing something wrong

I cook at 180 and cook for 180 seconds is this right?

cheers guys

How close are you printing to the handle. It could also be the pressure being too light

I found that printing near the edge was inconsistent because of heat loss, the edges not being straight etc .... I did start turning the mug half way through - dont know why, but it did resolve the problem - in the end though I just made designs a bit smaller...

Thank you both, I have tightened the press and will try printing away from the handle

Cheers
