[becky13299]

when you mean pre pressed paper do you put it in the press and heat it and at what temp and how long

[Paul]

press it lets say... 25- 30sec at 150C let it cool down a bit then print your designe on it.

btw. make sure you print on right side of your paper

Try filling your mug with boiling water from the kettle. Leave it for a minute, empty, THEN press your mug.
You can tape up the artwork before warming the mug.
My suspicion is you have a cheap press with small and weak heat element, the handle sucks out heat.
You get partial sublimation.

Ps. I prefere going to 200 or even 205 but fir a shorter time.
