Notice for Disc Writing and Printing

❏ Store the stacker out of direct sunlight. A warped or damaged stacker may stop the
product from operating normally.
❏ Use only CDs/DVDs/BDs labeled as suitable for printing, for example "Printable on the
label surface" or "Printable with ink jet printers."
❏ For more details on handling discs and for guidelines for writing data to discs, refer to
your CD/DVD/BD documentation.
❏ When using the product for the first time after storing it for a long time or after an error,
missing dots or ink stains may appear and print quality may be reduced. If publishing a
large number of discs, check print quality by publishing one disc in advance. If any dots
are missing, run head cleaning.
❏ When writing and printing discs separately, it is recommended to print after writing. If
you write discs after printing, ink may cause discs to stick to each other and result in a
transport error, or dirt, stains, or scratches on the disc may cause a write error.
❏ Printing on rib area may result in ink sticking, disc sticking, or color loss.
❏ Try to test print on a spare disc, and check the printed surface after waiting for one full
day, especially before printing a large number of discs.
❏ After printing the first copy, check the print quality to see if any dots are missing.
❏ Before using or touching the printed surface of your discs, make sure they are
completely dry and keep them out of direct sunlight.
❏ If the printed surface is sticky even after it has dried, do the following.
1. Change label type.
2. Change color saturation level.
3. Change the disc.
❏ Moisture on the printable surface may cause smearing.
