Primera Technology Essential Settings for Your Primera Print Hub

TOC INDEX

Intensity

The Intensity setting will control the amount of ink saturation on the disc. When printing onto the Primera TuffCoat discs, 96% is usually sufficient. When printing on to other brands of media, or if you would like to print darker colors, you may wish to increase the Intensity setting.

Inner Diameter

The inner diameter refers to the size of the non-printed center on your disc. The size of the center hub can vary from one type of media to the next. This allows you to set the inner diameter in millimeters allowing you to print all the way to the center hub regardless of the type of disc you are using. For the discs that Primera sells, use the following guide for Inner Diameter:

−23 mm for Primera's Tuff-Coat media

−24.9 mm for the Hockey Rink Disc, Business Card Disc and 80mm CD

Outer Margin

The Outer Margin refers to where the printing will cut off around the outer edge of your disc. The size of the printable surface can vary from one type of media to the next. This allows you to set the outer margin in millimeters allowing you to print all the way to the edge regardless of the type of disc you are using. The outer margin for Primera's TuffCoat Media should be set to 0.7mm.
