Printing on CDs and DVDs

Your printer includes a special tray that lets you print customized text, graphics, and photos directly on any ink-jet printable CD or DVD. The EPSON Print CD software makes it easy to import your own photos, add text, and modify your designs with a variety of special effects. You can print on both regular 12-cm CDs and 8-cm mini CDs.

Caution: Thermal printable CDs and DVDs should not be used with this printer.

You can order ink-jet printable CDs and DVDs from several websites, for example, www.pcmall.com, www.cdw.com, www.warehouse.com, www.zones.com, www.macconnection.com, and www.pcconnection.com. Make sure you purchase CDs and DVDs that have an ink-jet printable surface.
