20 Using the CD Color Printer with Windows
Ink Saturation
This option controls the ink saturation of the printed image.
When printing onto the printer manufacturerÕs TuffCoat CD-R
media, this option should be left at its default setting of 100%.
When printing onto other brands of printable CD-R media, you
may need to adjust this control in order to optimize the ink
saturation for the printable surface of your specific CD-R
media. Click and drag on the slideÕs box, or click on the left
and right arrows to change the ink saturation setting. Moving
the slideÕs box to the left reduces the overall ink saturation,
while moving it to the right increases it.
Rotate 180
Select this option to rotate your printed image 180¡. Although
this option is not relevant when printing onto a CD-R, it does
provide greater flexibility when printing onto a jewel case
booklet or insert.
Manual Load
Select this option when you are printing multiple copies of a
single design or if using an auto-loader. If you do not select
this option when printing multiple copies, the printer has no
way of knowing whether or not you have loaded a blank CD-R
and will print each of the selected number of copies onto the
same CD. When this option is selected, you must press the
CD Tray button after each new CD-R blank is loaded. This will
close the CD Tray and let the printer know that a fresh CD-R is
installed and ready to be printed.
Write Direct to Port
Select this option to provide faster print processing when
printing from Windows 3.1x. When selected, this option allows
the printer driver to bypass the Windows 3.1x print manager
and to send all print data directly to the printer. This option
devotes all of your system resources to the current print job,
thereby increasing overall print speed. When the print job is
finished, your system resources will again be devoted to the
normal function of your on-screen applications.
Depending upon the brand of your computer, you may or may
not wish to select this option when printing. For most
computers, selecting this option will enhance the rasterizing
