Using the GX Auto Printer
Creating Disc Labels
The first step is to create a disc label of the correct size, 12cm x 12cm. You may use any application
you prefer to create your labels.
Included on the Installation disc are 2 eps-format templates for you to use. These are essentially
blank files of the correct size that show where the outer edge of the disc and the inner hub will the
image when your disc label designs are printed. One is for use with non-hub printable media (36mm
hub), while the other is to be used with hub printable media. Simply copy your artwork into these files
to create an easy disc label.
These files do not need to be used, but are provided for an easy reference when creating labels.
Loading Discs
The next step is to load your GX Auto Printer with output discs. The
system will accept CD or DVD 120 mm (12 cm) inkjet printable discs. If
the disc does not have an inkjet printable surface, the ink will not adhere
to the surface of the disc. The GX Auto Printer will only accept 12 cm
discs. Business card or 8 cm discs are not supported by this system.
Load the first 5 or 6 discs flat, as seen in the top image to the right.
Load the rest of the discs at an angle, against the wide input rod, as seen
in the bottom image to the right.
The GX Auto Printer will hold a maximum of 50 discs. DO NOT load more
than 50 discs in the system, as this may cause the discs to feed
incorrectly.
Printing Discs
While the Microboards GX Auto Printer will print from any application, you should always choose the
GX Series printer and 120mm disc in the Format For and Paper Size Page Setup selections,
respectively.
It is highly recommended that the image you are printing is 120mm by 120mm. Having a
different size image may result in the improper placement of the image on the disc.
Printing prior to burning any media is not recommended!!
