INDEX

Select PrimaColor to enable color-matching profiles written specifically for the Publisher by Candela Color Management System. This setting automatically adjusts the color of your image according to predetermined printer profiles and default system profiles. This results in a very precise color match when attempting to print photographic images.

Select Z-Colorto use a factory set color match scheme that is calibrated toward images that have photographic qualities.

Ink Saturation

This option controls the ink saturation of the printed image. When printing onto the printer manufacturer's TuffCoat CD media, this option can be left at its default setting of 50%.

When printing onto other brands of printable CD media, you may need to adjust this control in order to optimize the ink saturation for the printable surface of your specific CD 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. Please note that higher ink saturation results in higher ink usage. This will reduce the amount of discs produced per cartridge.

Inner Diameter

This value changes the size of the non-printed center. Larger numbers cause the non-printed center to be larger and smaller numbers make the non-printed center smaller. This number is incremented by 0.1mm so a change of 10 for inner diameter changes the diameter by 1mm.
