Creating Disc  37

Paper Size

The paper size option will be set to CD for printing onto print-

able surface CDs and DVDs. 

Resolution

Select the appropriate print quality option for your image.

Keep in mind that Normal 600 provides the lowest quality but

fastest print, and that Ultra Photo 4800 provides the highest

quality but slowest print.  You may wish to experiment with

these options to see which one is best for your particular CD

media and print quality requirements.

Cartridge Type

The 

Print Black with Black Cartridge

setting will print discs

using both the color and black cartridges.  This saves color ink

by using just the black cartridge for the black areas of your

design.  When using this setting, be sure to perform the

Alignment Calibration

 print described later in this section.

Please note that the Calibration Alignment will need to be

done after installing a new cartridge as alignment may vary

from one cartridge to the next.  Select 

Color

to print using only

the color cartridge.  The 

Monochrome Black

setting prints

using the 

Monochrome Black

cartridge only.

Color Matching

Click on the Color Matching down arrow and choose the color

matching option that's right for you.  Select 

None

if you are

more interested in print speed rather than color accuracy, if

you have already color corrected your image for printing, or if

you are using some other third party color matching software. 
Select 

Algebraic

if you would like the printer driver to make

very simple color balance adjustments based on an RGB color

model.  This option gives you more natural looking images

without actually utilizing any specific color matching software. 
Select 

PrimaColor

to enable color-matching profiles written

specifically for the Publisher by Candela Color Management

System.  This setting automatically adjusts the color of your

image according to predetermined printer profiles and default

system profiles.  This results in a very precise color match

when attempting to print photographic images.
Select 

Z-Color

to use a factory set color match scheme that is

calibrated toward images that have photographic qualities.
