Caution:
c
❏ Make sure to set the inner diameter and the outer diameter within the areas shown above.
Printing on sections outside the printable area may damage your CD/DVD/BD drive.
❏ The EPSON Total Disc Maker can set between an inner diameter of 18 mm and an outer
diameter of 119.4 mm (0.71 to 4.70"). However, printing outside the printable area (45 to
116 mm) may result in sticking, staining of the disc tray, peeling of print, and blurring of
print. It is recommended to check the disc type before using.
❏ When printing outside the printable area (ink absorbing layer) of the disc occurs, the ink
printed outside the printable area does not fix. Check the label of the printable area of the
disc being used before setting.
❏ Precautions for setting the printable area
-Make sure the printable area set does not exceed the printable area of the actual disc
being used.
-Check whether coloration of print made on the rib (stack ring) is not uniform.
-Printing on the rib (stack ring) may cause ink sticking, disc sticking, and ink erasure after
printing.
❏ Measures to be taken when printing outside printable area:
When printing inside the inner diameter results in ink sticking, disc sticking, and ink
erasure, take the following action to avoid that.
-Set Drying Time on the printer driver's printer settings screen and print. Although
throughput may be reduced, problems will be avoided or reduced, since the disc will be
ejected after a set time.
-Enable Publish after Mask Rib Area. If you print from another application, set from the
user-defined label setting in the printer driver. If you print from the Total Disc Maker, set
from Set Inner/Outer Diameter setting.
Note:
When you print on discs with a commercially available software package that supports disc printing,
you have to make the following settings.
