Using the CD Color Printer Pro with Windows 25
E. PRINTING A CD
Now that you have hooked up the printer, loaded the print
supplies, and installed the printer driver, you are ready to print
your first CD. Follow these steps to print your first image:
1. Go to your favorite graphics application program. Or,
install and open the Windows CD creation 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 4.567”
x 4.567” (116 x 116mm). 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 1.73” (44mm) 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 4.567” (116mm) diameter and another
with a 1.73” (44mm) 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
options are selected according to the supplies you have
installed in the printer. Once the driver is set, select Print
from the program’s File menu.
