Using the CD Color Printer IV with Windows 19
color of your image according to preconfigured printer profiles
and default system profiles. This results in a very precise color
match compliant with ICC standards.
Ink Saturation
This option controls the ink saturation of the printed image.
When printing onto the printer manufacturer’s TuffCoat CD
media, this option can be left at its default setting of 50%.
When printing onto other brands of printable CD media, you
may need to adjust this control in order to optimize the ink
saturation for the printable surface of your specific CD media.
Click and drag on the slide’s box, or click on the left and right
arrows to change the ink saturation setting. Moving the slide’s
box to the left reduces the overall ink saturation, while moving
it to the right increases it.
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
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 blank is loaded. This
will close the CD Tray and let the printer know that a fresh CD
is installed and ready to be printed.
Write Direct to Port
Select this option to provide faster print processing if printing
from Windows 95/98/Me. When selected, this option allows
the printer driver to bypass the Windows 95/98/Me 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 some
computers, selecting this option will enhance the rasterizing
and printing process. In this case, the Write Direct to Port
option may be selected. For some computers, however, this
option may not be supported and should not be selected.
