Ink Cartridge

Color + Black is best for images that have large areas of black graphics or text. Although you can print these same images with just the color cartridges, often the blacks will look darker with this setting. To make sure the black cartridge is used the black areas of the source image must be 100% black. If SureThing or Disc Cover is used to create black text or graph- ics you can be assured that the black areas are 100% black. However, if you are using a JPG image, even areas that look black may not use the black cartridge since the JPG format compresses the image.

Color Only is the default setting and is best for most images. With this setting the printer only uses the color cartridges to produce all colors including gray scale black and white images.

Monochrome Black is for images that have large black areas or black text. This will ensure that no color ink is being used.

Saturation

This option controls the ink saturation of the printed image. When printing onto the printer manufacturer's TuffCoat media, this option can be left at its default setting of 100%. When printing onto other brands of printable media, you may need to adjust this control in order to optimize the ink satura- tion for the printable surface of your specific 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.

Outer Margin

Adjust this value to print all the way to the outer edge of a disc. This is useful if you are printing full coverage images. The lower you set this value the farther to the outer edge of the disc you will print. Please note that with most media the printable surface does not extend all the way to the edge of the disc. Because of this you will not normally set this value to zero. You may also want to adjust the inner diameter setting. To use the preset outer diameter setting for Primera media, select the media type from the drop down box at the top of the printer settings area.
