Section 2:Ink Cartridges and
Printable CDs
A. ABOUT INK CARTRIDGES AND PRINTABLE CDS
For photographic 6 color printing, two cartridges are needed.
First is a CMY (cyan, magenta and yellow) color cartridge.
The second is a Kcm (black, light cyan and light magenta)
Photo color cartridge. These cartridges contain the process
colors which combine to produce 16.7 million printable colors.
A monochrome ink cartridge is also available for fast,
inexpensive black-and-white printing or can be used with the
CMY color cartridge for 4-color CMYK printing.
With all of these ink cartridges, you can print directly onto
virtually any brand of inkjet printable-surface media. Since
different brands of discs have different printable coatings,
however, you may need to adjust the printer driver settings to
accommodate your specific brand of media. Refer to Section 3
for further printer driver information.
Due to the wide variety of inkjet printable-surface media, you
may find that certain brands of discs provide higher print quality
than others. For maximum print quality, use media authorized
by the printer manufacturer. Contact your local OptiEC Pro
Printer reseller or contact the printer manufacturer directly for
selection and pricing on all printer supplies and accessories.
B. INSTALLING THE INK CARTRIDGES
1. With the Disc Tray closed, open the printer’s front cover by
pulling down on its top-left corner.
