Center The Print Image

NOTE: Your printer comes from the factory pre-calibrated to print the image in the center of the CD. You can use this adjustment if you need to fine-tune this location.

If you ever wish to verify your factory-calibrated Vertical and Horizontal calibration settings, you can run a simple calibration procedure to assure that your images will be centered when printed on a CD. To do this, refer to the following steps:

1.Verify that a disc and a color ink cartridge are installed in the Printer. It is important to use the same disc you normally use for your publishing because different brands of discs may vary slightly in size. Also, verify that the Printer is powered ON and that it is connected to your computer.

2.Click on the Center the Print Image and then the Properties button. The printer will begin printing the calibration test print.

3.When the print is complete, rotate disc 180º and put the disc back in the input bin and

repeat step 2 using the same disc.

4.When the second run of the print is complete, you should have a test print that looks similar to the following:

NOTE:

After printing this image once, rotate this CD so the ARROWS point

to the BACK of the printer and print again.
