Re: Doing cups

Post by cardman »

here`s how i do it

I print from template 20x9 (as the xpress machine i have doesnt go nr the handle)
then i cut out template but leave bit of blank white paper on either side and use tape to hold this on the cup

Now here is where its a hit and miss for me

Aligning it up so its perfectly straight and its equal at both sides of cups

Hows everyone else managing theres - maybe im missing some easy tips :)

I cut the width of the transfer to the height of the mug so, you can use the bottom of the mug to line the transfer paper up straight. I also cut the length so it fits from handle to handle too. If you have your image in the middle of that then it should be central on your mug. Hope it helps.

if i'm doing a normal image i.e. not a wrap i cut it in 2 pieces and hold it up
i can just see the image thru the paper and check it's straight and where i want it etc
