Are you using the right kind of printer? It has to be a specific toner type to work.

Squid is right, you have to use a printer with a high iron content like the HP 1020 or 2300 laser jet.

Try using the temp where you get a tack fuse and hold it longer or go up about 10 degrees from there and hold it longer.

I haven't used my paper (bought some time ago - hope it doesn't have a shelf life) .. but ...
First of all full fuse to get the shape you want.
Then apply the decal and tack fuse to apply keep it within the temp range suitable... for what you want. What temp does it adhere at? Either way do the high temp things first and work downwards.
It applies to painting applications as well ...

Hi Perleloftet--
I think that SadiesJewels has the right idea--create a flat blank that is full fused as a first step. Then, in a second firing, apply the photopaper decals and tack fuse them.
Do you need basic firing schedules for full and tack fuse? I will share my schedules for COE 90 glass if that would be helpful.
Julie

I read my instructions tonight (like I have time but I needed a worthwhile diversion - lol).
Fuse onto opaque light colored backgrounds is recommended.
Only certain laser printers are recommended.
Yes ... fuse your blank base layers first and then fuse on the picture paper.
You can cap your image with a transparent too.
