Common Mistakes to Avoid When Resetting Cricut Mug Press

Users are likely to make certain mistakes when resetting the Cricut Mug Press. Here are some of the most common ones:

Not Unplugging Power First

If you forget to unplug the power cord before you start the reset, the process will be interrupted, and it may cause errors.

Releasing the Power Button Very Early

If you release the power button before the lights flash, the reset will be incomplete. So, be patient and wait until the light sequence appears.

Resetting for Every Problem

Not every problem requires a reset to resolve it. Hitches like poor ventilation, dirty heat plates, or wrong mug size are not associated with reset and need other resolutions.

Skipping Updates After Reset

It often happens that users forget to reconnect their machine to Design Space to check for firmware updates. If the device is not up-to-date, it may not work correctly.

Doing Too Many Resets

If you do the reset multiple times, it can put a load on the Mug Press machine and may not fix the actual underlying problem.
