I just got the same exact press in the mail today, and needed a good starting point. In my Cooks 1000 watt convection oven, they were taking 15 minutes. This is so much faster, and like you said, the handle is not hot. Huge game changer. Thank you.

[@tizzsy6056]

You've taken the complicated mystique out of a process that is so logical, and your teaching is clear and simple with step by step. I think this is the only video I'll ever need. And because of all this, you have inspired me to invest in good equipment (Epson here in the UK) and the confidence to go for it. I'll come back when I've made my first million ... (mistakes, that is lol). Thank you so much.

[@HalfAssHomestead]

I use the Epson ET4700 with Hiipoo Inks on HTTP-XP TexPrint Paper. The results are phenomenal, and her guidance will save you a ton in wasted mugs/ink/paper. Don't be like me, just mirror every image from the get go. I also use Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo which are much cheaper alternatives to Adobe products, but work the same.

[@omaralvarez3564]

True

[@PiecesOfJenus]

Lol .. I agree!

[@bridgettmason3844]

So thankful I found your video. I had a hard time getting the right temp and went through several mugs with no success. Your settings and time are perfect.

[@HalfAssHomestead]

The 400 degrees F is a magical number. Anything less it will not work. Anything more, and you may lose the vibrancy of the image. On T-Shirts, and Aluminum picture blanks you only want to press for 1 minute.

[@tammycurlett2213]

I am new with using Cricut and sublimation. I have been searching hours trying to figure this out. Thank you so much.

[@uniquelywhynotcraft]

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for. No fluff, just right into and the right details I needed. Your mugs turned out really cute!

Hopefully I'll learn from this cup sublimation tutorial!

What setting do you use in the sawgrass print manager?

[@barbarachilders1921]

Can you tell me about how many prints you get out of the regular ink cartridges? And the other question is the cost of the drum when you have to replace that.

[@biruhtesfa8448]

Lovely! Thanks.

[@rebeccaabbott-fryer8472]

really interesting thank you im just looking in to buying this printer do you know how much ink is used when you print a mug all the way round. any most of guidance on this would be really useful Thanks R

Hi, thank you for the video. Have you ever print on ceramic mug?

[@LorrieNunemaker]

These are ceramic mugs ?

[@gisellealleyne8477]

My 1st time am excited wooohoooo

[@maribelperez5841]

Would you be able to make a tutorial on how to create a template?

[@LorrieNunemaker]

I have several videos showing the process and various ways to make the images and templates. Also the place you buy your mugs usually have free templates to download

[@Mspre412]

Great tutorial! Thank you so mug for sharing lol! What are the measurements for all around? Thanks in advance!

[@HalfAssHomestead]

All around except under the handle is 9 inches x 3.75 inches. However, using standard 8.5 x 11 sheets look awesome, printing side to side with no borders.

[@esmeraldarivera4890]

Have u tried using the mug heat press for tumblers

[@lagmanart3328]

I started heat pressing mugs now and enjoying it. Although not liking the smell of burnt paper or ink. Do you have this experience while heat pressing? Any bad effects to our health?

[@davidhenriques7791]

We just got this today what exactly does the trigger button do we’re so confused probably something so easy too

[@symlun7520]

Hi there. Wonderful job on your mugs. I'm interested myself to set out on this endeavor. I'm learning some things about it but I have some questions. I'd read that the transfer of your photos can come out distorted or blurry. I have 4 questions at this time.( Questions 1 )... I read in some cases it's the quality of the photo ? ( Question 2 ) In other cases it's the printer itself ? ( Question 3 ) In other cases it's the tempature of your press ? ( Question 4 ) in some cases it's the pressure used ? ( Question 5 ) And finally... I'd read that the photographs used can contain moisture themselves that can distort your finished product. I don't have alot of money to invest. I cant afford a setup like yours however you obviously must be very professional and I can really appreciate that. I don't even know what mugs I should use. If you could offer me any affordable advice I'd greatly appreciate that. Thank you and God bless.

[@jenniferwalters4037]

Can you put these in the oven like the tumblers ????

[@segiafaletoi6212]

Hi thanks for sharing your experience. But I jst want to know type of mug to supplement.

[@erasmoavezch2540]

thank you

[@marlenearagon5485]

Loved the information. From the sawgrass software, have you noticed a difference in the end results from using photographic to vivid or vise versa?

[@LorrieNunemaker]

Not really. I usually use the defaults

[@cindiloo4468]

Absolutely fascinating and I checked out the mug press ... wow what a reasonable price! Have you ever owned or used a combo heat press with all the additional mug press, plate press, hat press? Would love to have the entire thing especially to do Christmas plates and giving plates. Would you have a recommendation? Thank you for your great videos, I don't always comment but I watch and appreciate each and every one of them.

[@LorrieNunemaker]

Cindi Loo I’ve not had the combo units. I was always afraid one piece or the other would quit working and then I’d have to replace the whole thing. I have had a few heat presses and this is the only mug press I’ve used

[@njcamocutie7085]

Another great vid...question, im looking to buy a mug press, can I do 15 oz. on this press you have.Thank you

[@HalfAssHomestead]

Yes you can. You just have to adjust the tension knob to wrap tight around the mug. Remember though that the larger the diameter, the smaller the graphics, as you can not do a full wrap around on it.

[@toxikcherry13]

Did you need special ink or regular inkjet ink will work? Thank you ❤️

[@MsSony12345]

Thank you very much for the tutorial!!! I'm looking to buy a heat press. What kind of press do you have? Where did you buy the mugs and the tape for the mug please?

do you have suggestion for what mug to use?

[@luxenettoyageross7791]

Hi Lorrie how do I make the multiple print on same paper do I have to put them all together as one file to print or I can do separate print ?? I have an Epson xp4100

[@JerrySmith-fg3pg]

great thank you can I ask what programme you used for printing your print ? Word? etc thank you

[@lisaferrucci1640]

Great video TY. I am having trouble with the final product. The color doesn't come out good on the mug. The black looks dark green. Am I pressing for too long. Not sure if I have to wait to the press get back to 400 once the mug is in. The temp decreases so much when the mug is put in. TY

[@petronelalates8623]

can you tell me in which program do you work the designs please? thanks

[@swairidinalikodikara7740]

Hi Thank you so much for sharing the idea. Can you please tell me the image print on the white paper, is it just normal laser print? and what is the paper used to print?

[@LorrieNunemaker]

I go over all of this in the video. It is printed with the sublimation printer. Also as stated in the video I used copy paper

[@lahingmangyantv6530]

wow im amaze

[@julierumsey5517]

Have you used the Cricut sublimation ink transfer sheets on a mug? I'm getting the grid lines from the Cricut transfer tape on the mug, along with the design. What am I doing wrong? Too hot? not hot enough? Too long a time? Too short a time? Any suggestions? Thanks!

[@kellylynn4839]

Is it heat tape?

[@gioknows]

Can you do that on plates? Cheers from Ottawa, Canada.

[@LorrieNunemaker]

You can sublimate on sublimation blank plates with a plate press

[@jennymess99]

Do you have a template I can use for photoshop? Thank you. Also do you need to cover your mug with butcher paper too?

[@LorrieNunemaker]

You can usually get templates from the place you get your mugs. I do t provide them because some mugs are taller/shorter and/or skinner/fatter. I don’t want to give you a template a s have it not fit your particular mug

[@siobarron2490]

Hi, thank you for your very simple clear video's!! When you use the copy paper do you use the sub ink or inkjet printer. I just did my first mug thank you to your video. I did use sub paper and ink but curious about copy paper.

[@LorrieNunemaker]

Always sub ink. The magic is in the ink, not the paper
