Sublimation on mugs

Hello,
I started doing sublimation. My Epson printer with sublimation ink transfer paper. A-SUB 129g. I set it to 200 C. and 180 seconds on my mug press. But practically nothing transfers, either the image is very pale or there is a small border at the top or bottom. And even then the colors are pale. What am I doing wrong??... Because on fabric the result is good. Thank you

Configuration: Android / Chrome 79.0.3945.116

    Are you sure about the quality of your mugs? Maybe you have a poorly treated batch for sublimation...

      I believe that this is my problem with the mugs. They are not sublimation mugs.

      Indeed, if you do not use mugs specially treated for sublimation printing, it will work much less well...

      Test several suppliers... They are not all of the same quality... and once you have found the right one... stick with it!

      I have the same issue
      But for my part, I bought mugs specially designed for sublimation.
      The problem is that they are pale, faded effect!
      I've turned the problem around in every way and searched online, but I can't find anything!

      Hello
      Have you resolved your issue?
      I have all the equipment for sublimation paper, ink, and mugs
      Textile transfer is perfect but catastrophic for the mugs, the ink does not transfer
      I tried changing the temperature as well as the time but nothing works
      How did you solve your problem?

      The important thing is what you print.... you can even print from a word processor..
      For free creation/layout software, the trilogy is:
      Gimp or Photofiltre for images
      Inkscape for drawings
      Scribus for layout
