Section 2: Ink Cartridges and Printable CDs
A. ABOUT INK CARTRIDGES AND PRINTABLE CDS
For full-color printing, a 3-color ink cartridge is available. This cartridge contains the three process-color inks of yellow, magenta, and cyan, which combine to produce up to 16.7 million printable colors. A monochrome ink cartridge is also available for fast, inexpensive black and white printing.
With either of these ink cartridges, you can print directly onto virtually any brand of printable-surface CD media. Since different brands of CDs have different printable coatings, however, you may need to adjust the printer driver settings to accommodate your specific brand of CD media. Refer to Section 3 or 4 for further printer driver information.
Due to the wide variety of printable-surface CD media, you may find that certain brands of CDs provide higher print quality than others. For maximum print quality, use CD media authorized by the printer manufacturer. Contact your local CD Color Printer reseller or contact the printer manufacturer directly for selection and pricing on all printer supplies and accessories.
