Hope you don't mind me following this thread. I'm also having difficulties and would be interested in any advice you get. I'm using an adkins mug press so I'm confident this isn't causing my blurry images. I'm told 180 degrees for 180 sec and to make sure my mugs are room temperature before using them... but still have no joy

Which printer and paper are you using? And which mugs come to that?

with texprint follow the times on the guide sheet that comes with the paper, texprint r especially requires a longer pressing timehttp://
