You can also set the alignment so your first few CD.DVD's might be off by a few mm's until you adjust it correctly - it's very, very slight so they're not wasted - just depends on if your 1,000% anal & fanatical :-) My only hint here is you probably want to set the +1 setting on ink spray (in the epson CD printer options within the apple printer setup). I actually find that printing on SILVER printable discs is much classier looking than on WHITE discs - especially if your disc is not text heavy and you can really see the artwork. There are even some rudimentary text effects like stretching and warping. You can brighten/contrast every photo so if it's too distracting from the text or you want to make it brighter.Ĭreate a text box and use any font in your system - for some odd reason it has trouble with blue text with a drop shadow - the drop shadow is weirdly misaligned but not with any other color. You import a picture, stretch and send to back. The controls are also great in the software - while it's PC like in many aspects (no un-delete), it does the trick 98% of the time - you can set the ring size - I have used discs with large hubs to the newer ones with printable hubs almost to the center - just type in the size. ![]() The printer is FANTASTIC! They recommend that you encode the disc first versus printing it first since dust from the printer sleeve might scratch the disc beforehand, I encode first and then print - no problems after a couple hundred discs so I acnnot say if the other way works but why waste time printing out a possible coaster? With these settings, and following the instructions in the manual about carefully lining up the arrows on the disc feeder tray, the printer works very well, and produces very nice looking discs with minimal time/work/effort.įirst, if you actually read the 1-sheet instruction sheet, that's EACTLY what it tells you to do so it's not exactly a hint, more like if you lose your instruction sheet, you can go to epson's website or call - BTW, I had to swap out a printer - their customer service is great! They responded by email and the 800 number sent me a new printer before I mailed back the old printer (pre-paid postage also) so Epson has been a great experience in all aspects. It may be that with the other settings, this one ends up being ignored (not sure). I have not fiddled with it to see if other settings will work. But that's what the Epson tech told me to use, and it worked. The A4 paper size threw me, as I live in the US and am not likely to ever feed A4 paper into this printer. Set Mode to Automatic (make sure under the Advanced settings that all of the following are un-checked (not selected): Super MicroWeave (should be off), High Speed (should be off), Mirror image (should be off).Go to File -> Print, and set these options:.Format For: Epson Stylus R200 (Borderless Sheet Feeder).From within this app, go to File -> Page Setup, and set the following options:. ![]()
