I am using a sublimation print with each of my mugs. Lint roll the mug and tape your design into place.

The Cricut Mug Press does not really have time and temperature settings. The mug press comes set at a certain time and temperature, and every time you put a mug in, it looks for the blank temperature to reach a certain point.

Put the mug inside of the press and close the handle. The mug press will start timing with the LED strip lights.

Wait for the mug press to start beeping then lift the handle.

I actually didn’t have any issues with my glass mugs in the Cricut Mug Press except for the timer issues mentioned and the glass beer stein cracking.
