Becky & Tom from Etsy shop SkylineUK have kindly donated their mug printing kit to the hackspace. Their kit includes:

  • Two mug heat press machines (UKPress Blue Wave and PixMax)
  • EPSON XP-215 printer with Continuous Ink Supply System (CISS) for sublimation ink
  • spare (sublimation) mugs
  • sublimation paper
  • sublimation ink

This page is currently simply a summary of the info from the demo/workshop Tom gave us on the use of the kit. It is intended as a first reference to using the printer and presses in order to make beautiful custom mugs.
