What are you printing onto? The temp/time combination will vary a little. Several suppliers websites have their recommended temp and times on the individual product pages.

hot enough to sumlimate, cool enough to not damage the item.
200c or 190c is brighter than 180c, - but more likely to scorch.....no one correct answer ....
we usually do 180c for upto 2 min if only doing a few, but crank it if we have lots to do

okay thanks guys I am printing onto truepix sublimation paper onto 100% polyester shirts. I did try to print onot 50/50 % poly - cotton shirt but it turned out to be dull abd crap print
I set the heat pres at 180 c for 50 seconds but I guess its trial and error

most of the transfere happens in the first 10 or 20 seconds, but longer time allows the colours to saturate and become richer, - suggest longer at 180c

Usually 200c for 60 secs onto poly shirt, any less than 100% will print muted.
