Standard Settings
The DK3 comes preset at 400°F for 3.5 minutes. These settings
should do well for most sublimation style transfers. If the results are
not acceptable, or you are using laser transfer papers or other type of
transfer media, contact your transfer ink or paper supplier for
recommended guidelines. Please note that when pressing mugs, it
is perfectly normal to have a significant drop of 30+° in
temperature during the first part of the cycle due to the mug
absorbing a large amount of heat. The press will recover and print
properly, however. For some offset transfers or full bleed handle to
handle transfers, it may be necessary to increase the time to 4 minutes.
Programmable Presets
This feature is ideal for recalling previously saved settings from
various different applications. The presets are extremely easy to use,
and bring a powerful level of accuracy to heat transfer pressing.
This allows the user to quickly change from one application to
another with extreme accuracy. Over time, the user will save many
different settings in the presets based on the best results for different
applications.
