The Ink Density control on the DiscPainter Properties dialog box has settings for matte, glossy, and
color or silver discs.
Begin by choosing the Ink Density setting that most closely matches your disc type. Then,
experiment with the settings to see what looks best for your disc and design.
To select the ink density
♦ From the Print dialog box, select the setting that you want to use from the Ink Density drop-
down list.
You might find that you prefer settings other than those recommended. Select a finish (matte,
glossy, or color) that matches your disc. If the results are not what you expected, try printing with a
different ink density setting.
Controlling Disc Settings
As with any other printer, the paper size selected determines the area to be printed. Before printing,
you must make sure that the Paper Size selected matches the disc that you are going to print on.
Four paper sizes are pre-defined for the printer:
• Standard (120 mm) Hub Printable
• Standard (120 mm) Non-Hub Printable
• Mini (80 mm) Hub Printable
• Mini (80 mm) Non-Hub Printable
