Have been printing mugs for a few years, am generally very experienced with the whole process but have been having some really frustrating issues of late.
Ever since I started printing mugs I’ve always had issues with printing darker colours like navy blue and dark greens. Blacks are generally perfect but dark greens and blues either print faded or if I up the temp/time they end up blurry.
It has been suggested that the printer might be depositing too much ink on the paper which I’ll look at but I just wanted to know if I’m the only one struggling with this or is it ‘the norm’?
