Creating Discs on a PC 25
NOTE:
Exact color matching of the printed discs to the screen may never
be possible since there are factors that affect this out of the drivers
control. The surface of the disc reacts with the ink in the cartridge to
produce the color. For this reason, when printing the same image to
different types of discs with different surfaces the printed output can
look entirely different.
Ink Saturation
This option controls the ink saturation of the printed image.
When printing onto the printer manufacturer's TuffCoat CD
media, this option can be left at its default setting of 100%.
When printing onto other brands of printable CD media, you
may need to adjust this control in order to optimize the ink
saturation for the printable surface of your specific CD media.
If discs do not seem to be drying completely it may be
necessary to reduce this value.
Calibration Options
Click on the plus to reveal the following four Calibration
options.
Inner Diameter
This value changes the size of the non-printed center. Larger
numbers cause the non-printed center to be larger and smaller
numbers make the non-printed center smaller. This number is
incremented by 0.1mm so a change of 10 for inner diameter
changes the diameter by 1mm.
Inner Diameter Non-Printed Diameter
230 0.905" (22.0mm) (TuffCoatTM, Default)
150 0.591" (15mm) (Physical Center)
Cartridge Alignment
The Cartridge Alignment prints a test print and then
automatically scans the print to configure your printer for
bidirectional printing and to align the color cartridge. It is
important to perform this calibration every time you change
a cartridge. If you forget to perform this calibration you will
be prompted to do so before your first print from the new
cartridge.
