Once pressing is done, immediately peel off sublimation paper.Note: It is normal to see the temperature lower when you close the press. Then it will start counting down.ī) Mug presses without an idle temperature will start counting down immediately. a) Mug presses with idle temperatures will start raising the temperature until press temperature is reached.

Ensure the mug press has reached the temperature. Ensure that you have set the correct temperature & time for your mug press model.Tape imaged sublimation paper onto your mug.Joto Digital Mug Press - 5 Stations - 11oz Mug Element.Joto Digital Mug Press - Dual Station Includes 5 Elements- 11oz Mug Element.Joto Digital Mug Press -Single Station Includes 7 Elements - 11oz Mug Element.Joto Digital Mug Press -Single Station Includes 4 Elements - 11oz Mug Element.Joto Digital Mug Press - Single Station Includes 2 Elements - 11oz Mug Element.*if you use laser, the image may not entirely disappear when cold, the background will change from black to white and vice versa When pouring a hot drink, the mug turns white and any images that are sublimated onto the mug will appear.įor more information, please click on the video tab to see the mug changing color. These sublimation mugs dynamically react to heat and change color and message in the most amazing way. When the mug is cold, the mug turns black. Mugs should be removed and dried before pressing.High-quality polyester coated ceramic mug with a gloss finish. Soak mugs in a bowl of hot water for 5-10 minutes – this method is ideal for large print runs or bulk orders.Again the mug should be warm / slightly hot when handling. Fill the mug with boiling water and leave for 1-2 minutes.The mug should warm / slightly hot to the touch but not too hot to handle.

Prepress / preheat in your mug press – the blank mug can be placed into the heat press for 30-40 seconds.

Mugs can be preheated in a number of ways we use the following methods depending on the particular job we are undertaking. Sudden temperature change can result in fine cracks in the ceramic or even shattered mugs.

Preheating also avoid a sudden change in temperature when it is placed into the mug heat press.

Preheating also decreases the risk of fading towards the bottom of the mug – fading is common on the bottom of the mug as the ceramic is more dense this means it requires more heat to obtain a good even transfer from the design.

Preheating mugs helps to improve the reaction and transfer of ink yielding a better quality and more consistent transfer when heat pressed.

It is advised to preheat your blank sublimation mug to ensure heat is within the ceramic before pressing.
