    I had never actually pressed these in a press before because I've always used an oven before I got it a few weeks ago, but I have literally tried every time and temp combination going on these MDP...

    yes!!! This is definitely the problem!! I have just been through every single mug and every single one that has come out with clean crisp font is from the old batch from xpres! I can tell the...

    Oh really?? I wonder if it could just be these particular mugs then? Did you get yours from MDP? I used to get mine from xpres and didnt really have issues with them when I did them in the oven but I...

    yes, it's actually an entirely new press altogether because the first one from MDP I recieved a few weeks back I was having to press mugs at the press's top temp and time for it to print at all, they...

    dang. yes I have one here actually that I did for 340 seconds at 180 and it's probably the closest I have to any of them resembling good, but it must be a little overcooked because the font just...

    thanks for your reply! Yes I will definitely start doing that and squeezing every bit of space out of the mugs, I've yet to have a single one come out perfect spanning over 3 weeks of trial and error...

    I know, it is absolutely ludicrous and I just cannot understand why on Earth they would need so long.. I am still not convinced to be honest that something isn't right with the press. Yes the ceramic...

    Hi All
    I was hoping for some advice on finding sweatshirts for sublimation. I don’t know if what I’m looking for actually even exists so I thought I’d seek advice before going down more rabbit hole...

    Thanks so much for that, I’ve just read through the thread and it was massively helpful. I think it’s more of a timing issue than a temperature issue after reading that. I’ll take another run at it...

    It’s a belling mk318 that I use and it has been fitted with a thermocouple, if I go any higher than 180-190 it tends to burn the paper, if yours do 20 minutes in maybe they’re just well undercooked...
