Martin has helpfully sent me some info and it does have a standby and operating temperature setting (which I didn't realise). I just need to work out how I set the thing up properly now and which temperature is being set first! If anyone does have this press could they go over the sequence please. Thanks

If i understand correcty you have the swing away which is the same as the 8in1 press from BMS

The correct sequence is push the mode button and this will be the idle temp push the mode button again and this is the operating temp and push the mode button again and this will be your timer,When your ready to press you need to push the square button to start the process of idle temp going upto operating temp and then when it gets there the timer will count down

Hope this helps

Hi Craig just pressed a mousemat for my mum's birthday and your instructions worked perfectly just a quick clarification though please do I wait until the press has reached the operation temp before I put the mousemat / coaster whatever down on the plate or do I put it on the plate and it presses until the operating temperature has been reached and then for the desired time?

Ps colours much better too!

Thanks for everyone's help

For mousemats and coasters you get to operating temperature and then press.

50 secs sounds about right for sublimating fabric items like t-shirts/mousemats (although I cannot see where 50 secs is mentioned on my quick glance back up the thread). ICC profiles are specific to the printer and the inks that you are using so almost certainly need to have a custom ICC profile created. PM the moderator Paul (that is his user name) and he will explain more and help you I am sure.
