These applications will usually give you the same choices and options, but in a slightly altered format.

Media

Click on the Media down arrow. A list of media selections appears. Select the CD option if printing onto printable CDÕs. Select Booklet if printing onto a jewel case booklet. Select Insert if printing onto a jewel case insert. When sizing your images for printing, keep in mind that each type of CD media has the following maximum printable areas:

CD 4.56Ó round (116mm), Booklet 4.63Ó x 4.67Ó (117.7 x 118.5mm), and Insert 4.57Ó x 5.9Ó (116 x 150mm). For a complete description of each type of print media and to see how each is installed, refer to Section 2.

Ink Cartridge

Select either Color or Monochrome according to the type of ink cartridge you have installed.

Print Quality

Select the appropriate print quality option for your image. Keep in mind that Draft provides the lowest quality but fastest print, and that Photo 600 x 300 provides the highest quality but slowest print. You may wish to experiment with these options to see which one is best for your particular CD label.
