switch back and forth between previously used cartridges.
After the cartridge has been replaced according to the
instructions on page 7, select either the New Color, New Black
or Photo or Used Cartridge button accordingly. These
selections are necessary for the printer to accurately keep
track of ink cartridge ink levels.
C. PRINTING A DISC
Now that you have hooked up the printer, loaded the print
supplies, and installed the printer driver, you are ready to print
your first disc. Follow these steps to print your first image:
1. Go to your favorite graphics application program. Or, install
and open the SureThing CD Labeler software included with
your printer.
2. Open or create the image file you wish to print. If using a
program other than the included Windows CD creation
software, you will need to create a custom page or canvas
size in your program according to the type of label you
intend to create. The following tips will help you do this:
•
If creating a label for a
CD,
set your page size to
119.7mm x 119.7mm. Although your image will appear
square on screen, the printer driver will automatically
crop your image to the round shape of a CD for
printing. The driver will also automatically crop out the
center 38.5mm of your image to accommodate a CD’s
non-printable center hub (more or less if you change
the center size in the Calibration tab). If you would like
to better visualize where the round outside edge and
the round non-printable center of a CD will fall in
relation to your image, simply draw one circle with a
119.7mm diameter and another with a 38.5mm
diameter. Then, center both circles within your active
page or canvas area. These circles will serve as a
guide while designing your image. Be sure to delete
these circles before printing.
3. Once you have created your image and are ready to print,
select
Print Setup
(or the equivalent) from the program’s
File menu to verify that the printer driver settings are
correct for your image. Be sure the proper Ink Cartridge
