Primera Technology Optical Disc Printing System Printer User Manual


 
Printing Discs on a PC 17
Business Card Disc - This prints to the 58mm by 86mm
rectangular business card CD-r media (Primera Part
Number 53340).
Hockey Rink Disc - This setting is for the rounded edge or,
"Hockey Rink", shaped business card CD-r media (Primera
Part Number 53341).
Non-printable Outer Margin
Adjust this value to print all the way to the outer edge of a CD.
This is useful if you are printing full coverage images. The
lower you set this value the farther to the outer edge of the CD
you will print. Please note that with most media the printable
surface does not extend all the way to the edge of the disc.
Because of this you will not normally set this value to zero. You
may also want to adjust the inner diameter setting found under
the Calibration Options which is explained later in this section.
Resolution
Select the appropriate print quality option for your image.
Keep in mind that Normal provides the lowest quality but
with the least ink usage. Best provides the highest quality but
with higher ink usage. Print speeds also vary slightly between
settings. However, speed is affected most by the Disc Surface
Quality setting. You may wish to experiment with these
options to see which one is best for your particular CD media
and print quality requirements.
Disc Surface Quality
This setting affects the quality, speed and ink usage of the
print. Color matching is also tied to this setting. Start with the
default setting for fastest printing and the least amount of ink
consumption. If the quality needs improvement move to the
next highest setting.
Cartridge Type
Select Color to print using only the color cartridge. Using this
setting still allows you to print black. The Printer uses all
three colors to create the black portions of the image. The
Monochrome Black setting prints using the Monochrome
Black cartridge only. The Printer will print in gray scale
whatever image is sent including color images.
