Are you using and epson printer? This seems to be a common problem. The recommended settings for the printer are: -15 yellow; +5 cyan; +5 magenta

Might have to adjust your heat/timing as well. When I first did mine they weren't that good. Then I tried 375/20 seconds. Also peel that sucker like ripping off a band-aid! Open that press, grit your teeth, grab the hot transfer and peel right away.
