I have been trying to transfer an image to ceramic "Latte" mugs. Each time I press the image with the mug press the image slides on the mug by about an eigth of an inch(1/8").
Can anyone suggest a solution. My mug press has different attachments for regular, Latte, Plates, Cap,Tee shirt.

Tape the transfer to the mug.

are you using heat press tape to tape the image to the mug?

David I see we were thinking the same thing.

I have taped the transfer to the mug at both sides, the top, the bottom and it still moves. I have tried less pressure(does not heat properly), More pressure( slides even more). What I eventually did was to bend a little portion of the metal on the press(Chinese Press) and use that as a stop to rest the mug against. It does'nt slide anymore and I only tape both sides now.
Thanks for your suggestions.

The USA made Geo Knight DK3. I'm a firm believer in American made products and this press won't let you down.

Now that I have successfully transferred images to Ceramic "cups without coating", I am about to embark onto transferring images to "Ceramic Plates without coating". I have one problem, I would like to add images to the border area of the plate. Can anyone suggest how these images should be affixed and cured? I have not seen this done on any of the videos available.
Thanks.

Lettering on the inside edge/rim of plates can only be done using "Water Decal" paper then spraying with an acrylic spray to prevent damage.
