•
The product supports discs for inkjet printers.
•
Coated discs other than Epson specified discs are not supported.
•
80-mm discs are not supported.
•
Do not use discs that have lens cleaner, labels or stickers, or condensation on them. Doing
so may result in an malfunction or failure.
•
Do not use a cracked, warped, or deformed disc. The disc may break into pieces inside the
product, resulting in a malfunction, or an injury when the disc is taken out.
•
With some discs, ink may get on the recording surface if the discs are stacked immediately
after printing. We recommend using a disc you do not need to do a test print to check the
print quality. Wait at least 24 hours before checking the color.
•
With some discs, the printing position may be shifted. Perform the print head alignment
and the printing position correction. See “[Utility] screen” on page 69 in this guide for
details on print head alignment and printing position correction.
•
If you use discs with a small stack ring (concentric circular projection), the discs may stick to
each other before or after printing.
•
Even if the same data is printed on identical discs, the same print results may not be able to
be achieved because of the individual differences (variations) of each disc.
Disc quality may affect print quality. We recommend using Epson specified discs. Epson offers
specified discs for all your printing needs.
