18 Using the CD Color Printer III with Windows
Media
The media option will be set to CD for printing onto printable
surface CDs, DVDs, and cardboard template CDs. When sizing
your images for printing, keep in mind that each type of CD
media has the following maximum printable areas:
CD 4.567 round (116mm). For a complete description of each
type of print media and to see how each is installed, refer to
Section 2.
Ink Cartridge
Select either Color or Monochrome according to the type of
ink cartridge you have installed.
Print Quality
Select the appropriate print quality option for your image.
Keep in mind that Fast 600 provides the lowest quality but
fastest print, and that Photo 1200 provides the highest quality
but slowest print. You may wish to experiment with these
options to see which one is best for your particular CD label.
Dither Mode
Select this option to choose the appropriate dither mode for
your image. Select Optimize for photos if printing a design
primarily composed of photographic images. Select Optimize
for graphics if mainly printing text, lines, and graphics.
Color Matching
Click on the Color Matching down arrow and choose the color
matching option thats right for you. Select None if you are
more interested in print speed rather than print color, if you
have already color corrected your image for printing, or if you
are using some other third party color matching software.
Select Algebraic if you would like the printer driver to make
very simple color balance adjustments based on an RGB color
model. This option gives you more natural looking images
without actually utilizing any specific color matching software.
Select PrimaColor to enable color matching profiles written
specifically for the CD Color Printer III. The PrimaColor by
Candela Color Management System automatically adjusts the
color of your image according to preconfigured printer profiles
and default system profiles. This results in a very precise color
match compliant with ICC standards.
