• Assembly and Installation

Diameter Settings Tab

The Diameter Settings tab allows you to change

the size of the print image to accommodate the

variety of printable surface area available on

media without having to modify the print image

itself. Moving from non-hub printable media to

hub-printable media, for instance, would only

require that you lower the Inner Diameter setting.

The Enable Masking option must be checked to

use this feature.

The Outer and Inner Diameters will change the

size of the area to be printed. To avoid

excessive ink buildup, these values should never

be set so that the PF-3 Print Factory is printing

off the media.

The Parameter Unit should remain on the 0.1mm setting for maximum precision.

The default diameter settings are a 118mm Outer Diameter and a 36mm Inner Diameter. If you are

using hub-printable media and the 17mm inner diameter SureThing template, the inner diameter must

be changed to the appropriate diameter before printing.

NOTE: Masking should always be enabled to avoid printing off the printable surface.

Ink Tab

The Ink tab provides you with the approximate remaining Ink Levels as a percentage of the full

cartridge capacity. These are approximations only, and are based on the assumption that the

cartridges were full when installed in the printer. The Color Ink percentage is based on the lowest

remaining ink level of the 3 colors.

To view the approximate levels of each individual color, click the Advanced

Ink Levels button. The individual color levels are only updated at the

beginning or end of a print job; if you are printing a large number of discs, the

overall Color Ink level on the main tab is a better indication of the true ink

level remaining.

Also on the Ink tab are the Ink Cartridge Replacement model numbers, and a Disc Count of the

number of discs printed.

Alignment Tab

The Alignment tab allows you to change the printer alignment.

Alignment

The Resolution setting will specify whether the alignment

values are measured in 1mm or 0.1mm increments. The

0.1mm setting is more precise and should always be used.

The Alignment values will move the print image on the disc.

Increasing the Top alignment value will move the print image down on the disc, while decreasing it

will move the image up on the disc. Increasing the Left alignment value will move the print image to

the right on the disc, while decreasing it will move the image left.

Use the accompanying graphic on the Alignment tab as a guide for what needs to be done if the

image is not centered.
