Are there any special handling considerations for inkjet printable discs before
and/or after printing?
All CD/DVD discs should be handled only by their edges to minimize contamination and
damage. CD/DVD discs should also be carefully stored in their original packaging until
they are used. Their storage environment should avoid exposure to extreme humidity.
The coating that allows inkjet printing on CD/DVD discs is typically not as durable as the
disc surface it is applied to. Any scuffs or markings in this coating may affect print
quality. In addition, humidity may soften this coating, and/or slow down the curing
process. To minimize the adverse affects of humidity we suggest you remove your
CD/DVD discs from storage, and place them in the duplication environment, at least 24
hours before they are used. Even after the ink has cured, touching the label surface may
leave a mark on your label. Handle CD/DVD discs by their edges.
Can I use third party ink cartridges, or refill my empty HP ink cartridges?
The short answer is NO! Using third party ink cartridges, or refilling empty HP ink
cartridges, will void your warranty. It should be noted that
TEAC,
unlike some of our
competitors, does not require you to purchase your ink cartridges from us. You may buy
replacement HP #56, #57, or #58 cartridges from any source you choose.
