Cartridge

Select this button to display options for changing or cleaning an ink cartridge.

Select the Change button to move the printer’s ink cartridge carrier to the load position in order to change ink cartridges. Note that pressing the printer’s Ink Cartridge button serves this same purpose. See Section 2 for further information on changing ink cartridges.

Select the Clean button to send a simple test print pattern to the printer. Be sure to have a CD template installed. This test print pattern purges the ink cartridge nozzles and lets you know if any one of the Yellow, Magenta, or Cyan nozzles is clogged. If one of these colors does not appear on the test print, repeat the cleaning procedure. If nozzles still appear to be clogged, remove the cartridge and gently wipe the nozzle area sideways with a clean, water-dampened cloth. If after several cleanings a color still does not appear on the test print, the cartridge may be damaged or empty and may need to be replaced.

Calibrate

Select this button to display options for fine-tuning the position of your printed image and the size of a CD’s non-printable center.

IMPORTANT! The Image Placement values labeled on your printer’s rear panel must be entered into the Vertical and Horizontal boxes prior to printing. These values have been optimized specifically for your printer and allow images to be centered on a CD when printed.
