Nozzle check print out looked fine, but I may do a print head clean anyway to see if it improves the situation.

I'm by no stretch of the imagination an 'expert' so take this with a degree of doubt but that looks like a heat mat problem to me......maybe you're clamping the mug too tight?

I wonder if you should not try a standard plain paper setting also if none of the above suggestions help. Those white lines can be a product in the past of the following: damp paper or wet ink (let transfer dry a while especially if using a high quality setting), uneven pressure around the mug, not long enough in the press (try 180 for 180), maybe printer banding.

Anyway I hope you fix it soon.

Nozzle checked, print head cleaned, pressed lowered slightly, time increased and it is all working really well.
