Cricut Mug Press, Starter Bundle

Product Information

Your mug must have a poly coating and straight walls. It is important to look for sublimation (poly-coated) mugs. Other mugs will not work. The Cricut Mug Press accommodates mugs in sizes from 11 oz. – 16 oz without any manual adjustment.

Tip: Put your Cricut Mug Press on a 12" x 12" EasyPress mat— not only does this provide heat resistance wherever you are, but it will give you room to cool off mugs and it makes it easy to slide your mug press out of the way while you cut your mug design. If you don't have a pressing mat like this, you can just use a folded bath towel. Your design can wrap to ½ inch from the handle. If your design is closer than ½ inch to the handle, the design cannot be heated thoroughly enough to transfer properly and you’ll see fading or discoloration. All of my free mug designs are set up so that they are not within that safety zone of the handle.BR][BR]With included thoughtful safety features, you can make peel-proof pro mugs with peace of mind. With USB cord activation, simply plug in to your MAC or PC to start up the mug press and away you go for vibrant, personalised cups. Buy Cricut mug blanks to simply refill and roll out more of your own stylistic choices each time you come up with a new idea, design or drawing.

Now position the wrap behind the mug, with the matter color side facing the mug and the bottom of the sheet touching your work surface, and center it on the mug.To setup your Cricut Mug Press, position yourself within two feet (24 inches) of your computer as you'll need to connect the Mug Press to your computer. (Yes, you need to have a desktop or laptop running Cricut Design Space to setup your Mug Press — if you don't have a computer of your own, do this at a friend or family's computer initially.) You cannot skip activation, as the press will not power on without it. Cricut Mug Press setup is located under the Heat Press picture. What Projects Do You Have for the Cricut Mug Press?

No, you will need to use Infusible Ink Pens and Markers. They have a special chemical composition that turns to a gas under high heat and becomes a part of the mug itself! A regular pen or marker won’t be able to do that.You can layer Infusible Ink for gorgeous and colorful mugs and I’ll show you how in a special multi-color mug tutorial coming up soon! Only use Infusible Ink-ready mugs sold by Cricut or sublimation blank mugs. Do not try to use a dollar store mug with this as it will NOT work — those are not sublimation or Infusible Ink ready and have no poly coating for the Infusible Ink to .
