    What's going on with TextPrint-R paper?!

    Can't figure this one out!



    I usually use TruePix Classic to sublimate my mugs, but I decided to buy a couple of packs of pre-cut TextPrint-R paper to save time cutting to size. Now for some reason, using my usual press settings, I cannot get deep blacks any longer. Blacks appear just a little washed out.


    My normal mug pressing times (using a Genie III mug press) are 180 deg. c for 30 seconds.


    I've tried increasing the pressing time in 5-second steps up to an extra 20 seconds, but that didn't work. Also tried lowering the temperature to 170 and 175 with no discernable difference.


    I'm using the Sawgrass Print Manager (8.2.1.2993) and have it set to ceramics/glass and TextPrint-R as my paper. I've tried leaving it set to TruePix Classic, but it makes no difference.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?
