Like said earlier It is a minor adjustment in your image,spacing from the bottom and top edge of the cup and applying a little more pressure on the cup you should be alright

I'm in agreement with a few comments here. I would always allow a 5-6mm gap top and bottom. I think it looks much neater as well.

Looks like a mat pressure thing to me. I had a similar problem to this and upped the pressure. Just make sure the paper is nicely squeezed around the top and bottom of the mug and if you're lucky (like I was) the image will be fine.

The safest way to avoid these issues is to avoid trying to print right to the bottom and leave a 5mm gap. If you just have to have it right to the bottom then trying the tips posted before 'might' get you the result you require.
As a few of the other have stated this is possible the best route to go down, better a small gap then another unsaleable mug that your stuck with. I have a good mug press and a cheap one, both work well with the 5mm gap. I do a 5mm gap at the top to safe as I already have more than enough mugs than I could possible drink out and also my friends

thanks for the replies everyone. I increased the pressure and its better thanks. still I little vague at the very bottom edge but that's due to shape of the mug.
Thanks very much for all your help
