Re: Large 17oz latte mugs

I have been asked by a workmate to print 9 latte mugs for this friday. I have just tried to print one (first time) and it's a disaster!!!

I have a standard mug press and when I ordered the latte mugs I was told I would also need the mug wraps (brown coloured that have clips to go on each end not the mug clamps).

I set everything up and pressed in mug press for 3 minutes but image and text were very faint so put back in for another 3 minutes but no difference. Is there something I am doing wrong or should I wrap in mug wraps and place in home oven?

Would this be easier? If so what temp should I set my oven for (fan or not?) and for how long?

Please help!!!!!!

I don't know what you are using here. What are these 'mug wraps' you refer to? Are these for an oven or some attachment you have for your mug press?
