Caution
Serious printhead damage may result from printing on a misplaced CD. Press the
Unit Attention button anytime to abort printing if the CD is misplaced.
Queuing Discs
Once a CD disc is placed on the printing pad, press the Unit Attention button once to
partially close the drawer until the disc is engaged by the front alignment pins.
Setting Up for Multicolor/Two-Color Printing
You may print multicolored labels if your printer is a Prism Printer with a color ribbon
installed. Two-color printing (black and your choice of red, green, blue) is available for
Windows NT4/2000/XP operating systems. For the best multicolor results, print on
silver or white flood coat discs that are designed for thermal printing. Selecting discs
is the most important task to provide the best color printing. When using halftones or
full label graphics, optimum color quality is obtained with Windows NT and Windows
2000 operating systems, and the Windows NT print driver. Windows ’95 and ’98 print
drivers will produce good results in most applications. This is a function of the printer
driver and not a limitation of the Rimage Prism Printer.
Setting up Multicolor Printing on Windows NT 4.0:
If printing CDs from a Rimage transporter and using Production Server 2000, version
1.11 or higher, some of these parameters are set in the parameters of the Production
Server 2000 application. The Production Server’s parameters override settings made
here.
1. Install a multicolor ribbon in the CD Printer.
2. Select Window’s Start button.
3. Select Printers from the Settings menu.
4. Right-click on Rimage Perfect Image Printer PF and select Properties.
5. Select the Device Settings tab.
6. Select the Installed Ribbon option and select the type of ribbon that is installed
in the printer at the lower portion of the dialog box.
7. At the Change Installed Ribbon Setting, select Color, Three Panel (CMY).
Note: Double print does not affect the color printing process, so it is disabled when a color
ribbon is selected.
