Creating Discs 41
Monochrome Black is for images that have large black areas or
black text. This will ensure that no color ink is being used. In
some cases printing JPG files using Color + Black for an image
that is all black will still cause some color ink to be used.
Monochrome Black is not recommended for gray scale images
such as a black and white picture. The ink spits of a black car-
tridge are not as small as the color cartridge. This allows for
faster black printing but at a lower dpi. Using just the black
cartridges for such images may result in a grainy image.
Color Matching
Best for Graphics mode is best used for graphical images
where accurate color reproduction is not as essential. Images
printed in this mode will look more vibrant because more ink
is being used to produce them. However, printing images of
people may produce skin tones that have a reddish tint.
Best for Photos mode is best used for photographic images
where accurate color reproduction is very essential. Images
printed in this mode will look lighter than those printed in
Photo mode. Skin tones especially will look more natural in
this mode.
NOTE: Exact color matching of the printed discs to the screen may never
be possible since there are factors that affect this out of the drivers
control. The surface of the disc reacts with the ink in the cartridge to
produce the color. For this reason, when printing the same image to
different types of labels with different surfaces the printed output can
look entirely different.
Ink Saturation
This option controls the ink saturation of the printed image.
When printing onto the printer manufacturer's TuffCoat CD
media, this option can 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 on the up and down arrows to change the ink saturation
setting. Lower numbers reduce the overall ink saturation,
while higher numbers increase it. If discs do not seem to be
drying completely it may be necessary to reduce this value.
