Hi Sean and welcome to the forum and the black art of sublimation :-) Actually you may have found it more brown than black so far, if you're overheating!

Plenty of info in the forums for you to read, it's good that you're bad experience hasn't put you off. So many folk buy the wrong equipment in the first instance, often hoping that spending £100 all in will get them great results, this is rarely the case as you'll read.

Yep Justin I should of said brown and colour bleeds and inconsistent results but I'm sure you guys have heard this all before ... I did try to start off on the cheap .... cheap press cheapish printer and inks.

Webtrekker it was mainly mugs and a combination of problems bad press poor ink I have only ever used the same mugs (orca coated from Subliblanks) but seem to have sorted it now with new equipment.
