    Designs are first printed onto a carrier paper using specially developed ink which is then transferred to the surface of the mug by a heat process. This causes the ink to vaporize and permanently dye the mug with the design. The result of this is a high quality image that cannot be matched by other printing methods. As the image can be prone to fading over time it is possible to obtain mugs that are protected by a clear glaze that makes them dishwasher safe for over 1000 cycles and last ten times longer but this will be reflected in a higher cost.

    The transfer printing process, on the other hand, is done when the designs involve intricate cuts or curves and need fine detailing. The process does not involve direct printing onto the promotional mug. It is first printed on the transfer paper and then applied to the surface with the hand. Similar to transfer printing, digital printing involves a laser printer with digital technology like the ones used at offices. When the design or the logo to be printed is of high resolution or contains photographs, the transfer printing process might not be very effective. Thus in such cases the laser printers are used. It has a drawback that it is a little costly and does not print a huge quantity in a day but proves to be very useful if the design is a photo.
