24 Using the CD Color Printer with Windows

4.

When the second run of the print is compete, you should
have a test print that looks like the following:

5.

Along the Vertical axis of the printed CD template, find the
number whose lines touch. For example, in the above
illustration, the number would be -6. Enter that number
into the Vertical box of the Calibration window. Repeat this
same step for the Horizontal axis.

6.

Select the OK button. The numbers you entered will stay
the same until you change them. Your images should now
be centered when printed on a CD.

The Calibration window also displays an Offset Calibration
option which is selectable only when printing with the Draft
Print Quality option selected. When printing in Draft quality,
the printer will print on both the left and right cartridge
movements. Although this is a very fast way to print, it can
sometimes make your CD image appear uneven around the
edges. To remedy this, the following procedure can be done to
optimize Draft quality printing.

1.

Verify that a cardboard CD template and an ink cartridge
are installed in the printer. Also, verify that the printer is
powered ON and that it is connected to your computer.

2.

From the printer driver setup window, select the Ink
Cartridge type you have installed (Color or Monochrome).

3.

Select the Calibrate button, and click on the Offset
CalibrationÕs Test Print button. The printer will begin
printing a calibration test print.
