Default Press time, pressure and heat temperature for claria inks and JPSS?

I was wondering for those who have been successful using the Epson 1400 oem claria inks what your heat pressure, temperature and your timing was. I did my first press today and the colors seem to be kinda faded from what they looked like on my transfer paper. I guess maybe some ghosting not too sure though.

I've used 375 deg at 30 seconds as recommended. Others may be differnt but I think that is correct....

Hi Grizz. I think my colors could look better but I'm picky I've been told. I just use the printer settings as they loaded on the computer. If someone has a better setting, I would like to know about it too.
