Try dunking in fairly warm water, with the wrap still taped to the mug, immediately after pressing. This kills the sublimation process before it can blur your prints. I get very sharp results using this method.

1. Cooking to long or to high temperature
2. Try to press them more slightly

What size mugs are you pressing?

I had a problem with 10oz mugs in a press with an 11oz blanket. The press closed up tightly against the handle but, when viewed from the top or bottom of the mug, I could see it wasn't clamping the mug body and wrap as tightly as it should. Obviously, I couldn't increase the pressure any more. The best solution is to make sure the mug blanket fits the size of the mug being pressed, but a possible work-around for mugs slightly smaller than the blanket is to use a thin silicone sheet around the mug to help increase the pressure.
