Hello
Thank you very much for the help
Yes, I have a new profile from Justin and I can see the BIG IMPROVEMENT (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), at least people start look like people, but it's not an exellent result yet.
Here are the photos of the press and 2 mugs I done.
The outcome is not bright enough and it's still looking faint.

What parametres should I use for the press?
Thank you
Regards
Anna

What pressure are you using Anna? Have you experimented with additional time and heat to see the difference?
Did you check printer and Corel settings in the links I sent you?

Press look good. I would set it (I useto had one like this one!) at 185C for 180sec and this would be my starting point.
I can see huge improvment when printing with profile but its not as good as it should. old debate about all printers are diferent seemd to remind itself...
by you may get away with it by little bit tweaking but this will involve tweaking with every photo you print.
but agian... I would try diferent preasure as Justin mentioned
my starting poin for mugs is always medium/heavy.
all the best!
PAul

That increase could make all the difference
Are you putting a blank in until the press is up to temp Anna?

Hi all,
I'm in France and I found this forum looking for a solution to my problem!
This problem is the same as that of Anna!
If you can give me also this profile of the P50 would be great.
Thank you very much and please excuse my friend Google that translates for me!

sorry for hijacking this thread how do I get paul to do me a profile?
