Cricut Mug Press

For first-timers, it can be confusing to use the  Cricut Mug Press properly. Here are the essential steps that should be kept in mind when getting started with this machine: 

Set up the Machine 

• Remove all the packaging from the press.

• Insert the power cable into the back of the machine.

• Connect the other end of the cable to your desktop system.

• If your computer has Design Space installed, open it. 

• At the top left, click the three horizontal lines. 

• Select “New Product Setup.”

• Click Heat Press > Cricut Mug Press.

• Now, follow the on-screen steps to download any updates required.

• Once this is complete, remove the USB cable from both devices, and you’re now ready to use the machine. 

Make Your First DIY Project 

• Open Design Space and create your infusible ink design. If your design is already cut and ready, move to the next step.

• Take your mug and clean it with a lint roller.

• Wrap your design around the mug and use heat-resistant tape to hold it in position.

• Put the mug into the preheated mug press. Make sure the handle is facing you and the lever is up.

• When the mug is in the right place, push the lever down.

• Wait until all the little dots are lit. This means the mug process is done.

• Lift the lever and carefully remove the mug by holding only the handle.

• Do not touch the mug surface as it will be very hot.

• Turn off the machine and let it cool down.

• Place the mug on a heat mat and let it cool for 10 to 15 minutes. Don’t remove the transfer sheet.

• Once the mug is completely cool, remove the tape and the transfer sheet.
