Good evening
I was recently asked if i print mouse mats, as a friend wanted 10 for work.
After a bit of searching online and on here it seemed that mouse mats are not very popular.
Plus there's a few different types/materials etc.
Anyway, i decided to give it a go. Bought 20 from MDP (2 packs of 10), on the basis that i would get a few wrong until i found the right time and temp etc.
There are no printing instructions on the MDP website for times and temps, and the people in the shop (when i went in and asked) told me to google it.
So after Only wasting a couple, i found that my time and temps are
356 degrees F (180C) for 50 seconds with light pressure applied.
The smell is a bit overpowering so i advise to print in a well ventilated area.
A logo in the middle of the mat looks good
A full photo does leave a small light bead around the edge of the picture/mat where the press cant apply the same pressure as the middle.

Hope this helps anyone thinking of printing mouse mats.
Any comments are greatly appreciated as its my first attempt and there's probably someone out there with better knowledge and better advice to give.
Have a great day everyone.
