Cautions When Printing on DVD/CDs

Be sure to use the CD-R Tray supplied with this printer. It has an "G" on the upper side.

Do not print on DVD/CDs that are not compatible with ink-jet printing. The ink will not dry and may cause problems with the disc itself or devices which the disc is loaded onto.

Do not print on the DVD/CDs' recording surface. Doing so will make data recorded on DVD/CDs

unreadable.

Hold DVD/CDs by their edges. Do not touch either the label surface (printing surface) or recording surface.

Remove any dirt from the CD-R Tray before placing DVD/CDs on the CD-R Tray. Loading discs in a dirty CD-R Tray may scratch the recording surface of the discs.

After printing, allow the printing surface of the disc to dry naturally. Do not use hairdryers or expose the disc to direct sunlight to dry the ink. Do not touch the printing surface until the ink has dried. Do not attach the CD-R Tray while the printer is in operation.

Do not remove the CD-R Tray while printing on DVD/CDs. Doing so may damage the printer, the CD- R Tray, or the disc.

Do not get dirt or scratches on the reflectors of the CD-R Tray. The printer may not be able to recognize loading of the DVD/CD, or printing may become misaligned. If the reflectors on the CD-R Tray become dirty, wipe the reflector clean with a soft, dry cloth, taking care not to scratch the plate. The CD-R Tray may become dirty if software other than CD-LabelPrint or Easy-PhotoPrint EX is

used.

Always use the supplied 8 cm CD-R Adapter when printing on 8 cm DVD/CDs.

Always close the Inner Cover after printing on DVD/CDs.

To keep the print quality at an optimal level, it is recommended to stop printing discs once every ten

discs when printing more than ten discs continuously.

To stop the printing operation, detach the CD-R Tray from the printer, then close the Inner Cover. After approximately three minutes have elapsed, open the Inner Cover, attach the CD-R Tray to the printer, then resume printing.
