Thanks Paul, I will give her a go as Jim King is now ignoring me altogether ?

<r>Hi Paul, Do you know anywhere else I might purchase the thermostat etc. Sunmeta have refused to sell me one or help me at all!?<br/>
<br/>
They said I they won't help me because I didn't purchase the machine from Sunmeta. I then asked the contact Jim King if he could tell<br/>
me where I could ...

Still not got any where with getting a thermostat from Sunmeta. Had an email 3 days ago asking where I bought my machine from?

in their listed products, but have emailed their sales.

<t>I have had a PixMax swing away press for over 12 months now. I haven't given it heavy use either.<br/>
<br/>
Today I went to use it after using it will only a few weeks ago and I can no longer set the temperature, which<br/>
is now stuck at only 50c ( not the setting I had it at when previously ...

<t>Sadly I haven't. They have not proved to be very sympathetic. They promise the recent update would resolve the problem, now they claim the next update might. They have also closed my case even though they have not resolved the problem.<br/>
I am not very impressed Sawgrass's attitude regarding ...

Thanks John, I very grateful, I'm going to try your method and let you know how I get on.

Cheers Will

<r>Hi John, Many thanks for reply. I'm desperate for all the help I can get right now. Your set-up seems very similar to mine as your are using Sawgrass inks and exactly the same paper ( I thinking of changing the paper, except I get perfect results on tiles ).<br/>
It maybe wise to ditch the mugs ...
