The HPN Signature Series Mug Cup Heat Press machine is a professional grade mug press designed to easily and efficiently heat transfer custom images onto almost any size and shape of mug. From small sized graphics such as names and logos to full wrap, edge to edge images. This machine is to be used with transfers from the sub dye printer. When transferring an image to a mug you need to make sure the material used is compatible. Mugs used with the sub dye process have a special coating. Here is an example of transferring an image:

====Operation====
    
The operation of the mug press is pretty simple. First, select a heating element that fits your glass or mug and fasten it into place using the black screws. There is no formula for selecting the correct element other than putting your mug inside and making sure it fits snug. Adjust the pressure using the large black knobs so that there is a firm, even pressure over the mug. Next, set the time and temperature. Feel free to experiment with different values as there is not an exact formula, but for dye sublimation set the temperature around 385°F for 190 seconds. The paper should have light tan look after removing it from the press. If the paper appears burnt the temperature should be decreased. After the time and temperature are set place the mug in the element and clamp down. The timer will beep once the transfer is complete. For complete details see the general procedure.

* If the paper looks really dark/black on removal the temperature needs to be reduced.
* Getting the graphic to stick properly can be very difficult. If it does not stick the the time and temperature should be increased but not too much or the vinyl will melt. It will also help to wait for things to cool before removing the backing.
  −
* If the vinyl comes out looking melted then it was most likely left in too long; reduce the time.
  −
* If the vinyl is wrinkled then it probably shifted while being clamped; secure the vinyl with tape before clamping.
