Using the CD Color Printer with Windows 19

Dither Mode

Select this option to choose the appropriate dither mode for
your image. Select Optimize for photos if printing a design
primarily composed of photographic images. Select Optimize
for graphics

if mainly printing text, lines, and graphics.

Color Matching

Click on the Color Matching down arrow and choose the color
matching option thatÕs right for you. Select None if you are
more interested in print speed rather than print color, if your
image is created in a CMYK color model, 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 CD Color Printer. The PrimaColor by
Candela Color Management System automatically adjusts the
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 manufacturerÕs TuffCoat CD
media, this option should be left at its default setting of 100%.
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 slideÕs box, or click on the left and right
arrows to change the ink saturation setting. Moving the slideÕs
box to the left reduces the overall ink saturation, while moving
it to the right increases it.

Rotate 180

Select this option to rotate your printed image 180¡. Although
this option is not relevant when printing onto a CD, it does
provide greater flexibility when printing onto a jewel case
booklet or insert.
