hi Martin, i have cured the issue a little, hard to see from the following picture but...........

Image

have taken the heat down to 220 but the machine is a real annoyance as the tempreture drops to 140 from 220, even if i warm the mug up. think the machine is on its way to be honest as Jon has cetainly used this one. so maybe in the market for a second hand DF180, but need to get the shiny black blankets. as you know with Jon he doesn't like change. its difficult


as you can see in the piccy there are two pionts where the print has kind of run. I have got Jon to leave more of a border on the mug, its cured it a bit

With the DF180 you have the idle temp, operating temp and time. So you should put your mug into the press when it has reached the idle temp and allow it to heat to operating temp with the mug in place and then the timer starts from when the operating temp has been reached. You shouldn't be putting a mug into the DF180 at 180 (or 220 degrees). The image is a little blurred to see what's happening, but if you have a good image then email it directly to us so we can try to see this more clearly. We no longer sell the DF180 as the DF1 does the same job.

Hi Martin, well without explaining about Jon here, as you know changing things with him is near impossible, he just doesn't accept change. i will possibly look around for a nifty cheap DF-180.

as for the piccy, i find it impossible to get a close up enough picture of the issue, it just looks like drips
