We have the same press. This method may work with some mugs but may not work with other mugs that have a thicker base. The best solution (for this press) is to do half the time, flip the mug around & do the other half time. (240 secs divided in half @400 degrees with flip in between). Keeping some bleed on both the top and bottom as you did will also help & give a beautiful finish.
hi im going to try this but can anyone answer is the fade because not enough pressure or its burning? im having an issues with skinny tumblers. and top and bottom the black looks brown. so im trying to figure out if its burning or not enough pressure. and yes iver searched and searched . no really no one out there showing or explaining? im down 5 tumblers. Please help thank you for the tips..
@@melic76 Browning signifies that your time is too much or you are using too much heat. Dial back on your time and/or heat settings. Fading can be due to not enough pressure, heating problems with your press and/or the heating element, or (if all else fails), the blanks from that specific manufacturer or it could be the batch itself. Try different brands of mugs/tumblers and find which results are best for you. Buy in bulk only after testing a few. You can re-use just one for testing depending on your case.
Thank you for watching my video and your comment, yes it is used for baking, I gave it a try and didn’t work because it wasn’t made for this type of cup. So I had to rule that option out at the time unfortunately.
It could be from the grip & pressure, you might have the sublimation paper where the grip is not tightening correctly. Try bringing back your print back a little from the end of your mug grip and see if that works. If that doesn’t work then I suggest try increasing your temperature and adding more pressure and hold for a longer bake time but not to long. Hope this helps 🙂
Hello I have never used an convection over before but I found out on my mug press that if I didn’t go 4 full minutes I got light images. You probably should bake it a little longer and make sure you have a good wrap around the mug 🙂
so what cause the fade edge? You solved it with a paper with longer edge? Cause I do have that issue with my mug. I know the paper is find cause beside that issue of faded edge the colour look so clean I use approx 150 seconds and 170 degree (celsius) it would be around 338 degree F I am a bit afraid to go to 200 degree C (400F around) and 240 seconds wouldn't it make colour go brown since lower temperature and does it fine? (yeah I am a total newbie in sublimation and learning :))
The grip is another problem that can cause the fade so you have to make sure you have added the correct pressure to the mug at all times please refer to my part two video to get an idea how to centerline your mug press. ruclips.net/video/ytErFAErn2Y/видео.html
After I heat press a mug or water bottle, the heat tape leaves a yellow stain and I can't get rid of it. The only solution I can come up with is to not use the tape and put the paper and slip into press. is it the type of tape I'm using? It's says it's heat resistant but it is yellow also. Please help! I'm wasting a lot of product trying to figure it out. Thanks!
Both should be ok at least you’re safe with either-or before you close out your program. Probably make two folders for yourself to separate your save formats. That’s what I do I have folders for svg. Jpg, png & cdr(coreldraw) files. Hope that helps
Hello you don’t have to use a sawgrass you can buy a epson printer that supports sublimation it’s called an eco tank sublimation and you can buy the inks as well. Hope this helped 🙂
Wrap the area as tight as you can and increase your pressure. Make sure your heat element is completely tight around that area to get best results. Hope this helps you 🙂
How about tha side near the handle that we cannot overlap? Because most of the time it's there where i am having trouble that the image did not transfer well.
@@nemen1309 I have my press set to 400 and 240 sec you might want to see if you can go higher on your temp/ sounds like you aren’t applying enough heat.
I have never worked with a tumble press but I would think if you add more bleed line it is very possible it will work. If not try increasing your temperature as well.
I used TexPrint-DTR Heavy Sublimation Transfer Paper for Ricoh & Virtuoso Sublimation Printing (110 sheets) and the setting is set to text print on a SG400
@@wankrecordsltd I would love give you a solid answer but I really don’t know what press your working with. My press recommends 400 degrees and 240 to 270 seconds. I would recommend you use one mug and make serval small prints and set each print at different second settings until you get that fine print quality then make that your permanent settings and write them down so you don’t lose them.
@@bobidutta3719 there are several that I know of: 1. Set correct pressure to grip mug 2. Overlap your image on mug or decrease image on your mug. 3. Have the right sublimation ink for ceramic products. 4. Set long enough time to bake your mug to get full ink absorption. 🙂

issue with that is any movement in the picture messes it up

Your welcome I’m glad to help! 🙂
I saw the green silicone wrap on your desk. Would it make sense to use it when pressing? Or is it used when baking in oven?

Maybe you can try using plain painters tape or lower your pressure minutes give that a try
You are using the wrong the tape made for textile , I had the same issue. Try buying tape for rigid material and hard substrates
I'm a complete newbie, i don't have a sawgrass printer, please could you tell me where i could get templates for the mugs please.
I buy templates on Etsy prices are very cheap
Thank you
Very informative video, however the music was way louder than you making it hard to understand vefbsl instructions or suggestions.
Thank you for watching and thank you for the feedback I will definitely work towards my volume to improve.
Thanks for sharing!
I love the mug press… I got mine a few months ago… have you tried tumblers on it I’m curious if it would work… not many videos on it
should i save my file in rgb or cmyk from photoshop or canva ...before i print it

@@nemen1309 I have my press set to 400 and 240 sec you might want to see if you can go higher on your temp/ sounds like you aren’t applying enough heat.
I like to use painters tape...comes right off with no residue but holds the print in place.
Thank you for sharing that info and it’s thicker. Definitely going to give it a try! Thank you so much! 🙂
Do you think this would work with a tumbler press? I'm having that problem
I have never worked with a tumble press but I would think if you add more bleed line it is very possible it will work. If not try increasing your temperature as well.
Hello friend, kindly ask if your mug press is °F or °C?
Mine is Fahrenheit
Thank you
You're welcome

Why are my colors coming out faded looking?
What is your temperature set to?
@@rockinprintz figured out my mugs were not designed for sublimation. Thanks for responding.
Sir I got lines on mug why?
Sounds like you need to clean your printer heads, go to print manager and run your cleaning system and that should clear the lines up.🙂
Or you can lower your print leaving some white on top and bottom and you wont have ghosting
Absolutely thank you
Any fade with black ink going brown?
Yes you have your press settings to high for the material or you may have to reduce your press minutes.
@@rockinprintz what settings would you recommend on black as other colours seem ok. 380 for 270 seconds gives superb results on other colours.
