Printing Discs on a Mac
27
The following is a description of the printer driver settings:
•
Cartridge to use
The
Black and Color
setting will use both cartridges when
printing your image. Color will only use the Color
Cartridge, and
Black Only
will only use the monochrome
cartridge for printing.
•
Kiosk Mode
Kiosk Mode will allow you to increase the capacity of your
Printer from 50 to 100 discs by dispensing finished discs
out the front of the unit instead of dropping them to the
output bin. This allows you to place blank discs in both
the input and output bins doubling your capacity.
Attach the Kiosk Kit to the Printer using the Kiosk Kit
installation instructions that came with your printer. This
setting will be overridden by the Kiosk Mode setting in
Discribe's Robot Write or Job Details Pane.
•
Print Quality
There are three options for image quality. Keep in mind
that Normal provides the fastest print at lower quality
while Best delivers the best quality at a slower print speed.
•
Disc Surface Quality
This setting also affects the Quality of the printed image
by altering the
color matching
profile. Start with the
default setting for fastest printing and the least ink
consumption. If the quality needs improvement, move
to the next highest setting.
•
Intensity
The Intensity setting will control the amount of ink
saturation on the disc. When printing onto the Primera
ToughCoat discs, 96% is usually sufficient. When printing
on to other brands of media, or if you would like to print
darker colors, you may wish to increase or decrease the
Intensity setting.
•
Inner Diameter
The inner diameter refers to the size of the non-printed
center on your disc. The size of the center hub can vary
from one type of media to the next. This allows you to set
the inner diameter in millimeters allowing you to print all
the way to the center hub regardless of the type of disc you
are using. For the discs that Primera sells, use the following
guide for Inner Diameter:
−
23 mm for Primera's Tuff-Coat CDRs and DVDs
−
24.9 mm for the Hockey Rink Disc, Business
Card Disc and 80mm CD
