Primera Technology Primera Signature III - Manual (Page 31)

Using the CD Color Printer III with Windows 21
Section 2-E, select either the New Cartridge Installed button or
the Old Cartridge Installed button accordingly. These
selections are necessary for the printer to accurately keep track
of ink cartridge ink levels.
NOTE: The ink type shown will be whatever Ink Cartridge is selected in the
driver. Also, the ink levels are shown for both color and monochrome
cartridges even though only one can be installed at a time.
Calibrate
Select this button to display options for fine-tuning the position
of your printed image and the size of a CD’s non-printable
center. The following gives a complete description of each of
the Calibration options.
IMPORTANT! The Image Placement values labeled on your printer’s rear
panel must be entered into the Vertical and Horizontal boxes
prior to printing. These values have been optimized
specifically for your printer and allow images to be centered
on a CD when printed.
When facing the printer, the Vertical adjustment moves the
printed image toward the back of the printer if a positive
number is entered and toward the front of the printer if a
negative number is entered. The Horizontal adjustment moves
the printed image toward the left-hand side if a positive
number is entered and toward the right-hand side if a negative
number is entered. The Center Size adjustment enlarges the
non-printable center if a positive number is entered and
reduces its size if a negative number is entered. As a rule, an
adjustment of 12 pixels is equivalent to approximately 1
millimeter. Once you have entered the optimum calibration
values, you will most likely not need to change them again.
The following diagram illustrates exactly how each of these
adjustments affect the printed image.
