• Print Quality There are four options for image quality. Keep in mind that Normal 600 provides the fastest print at lower quality while Ultra Photo 4800 delivers the best quality at a slower print speed. • PrimaColor™ Click on this Check box to enable PrimaColor color matching. The PrimaColor profiles were written specifically for the Bravo to give a precise color match when attempting to print photographic images. If you are using a third-party color management system, disable PrimaColor. • Intensity The Intensity setting will control the amount of ink saturation on the disc. When printing onto the Primera ToughCoat discs, 50% is usually sufficient. When printing on to other brands of media, or if you would like to print darker colors, you may wish to increase the Intensity setting. Please note that higher ink saturation could result in discs not drying instantly. Also, higher intensity will result in higher ink usage causing a lower yield of discs per cartridge. • Inner Diameter The inner diameter refers to the size of the non-printed center on your disc. The size of the center hub can vary from one type of media to the next. This allows you to set the inner diameter in millimeters allowing you to print all the way to the center hub regardless of the type of disc you Creating Discs 41 are using. For the discs that Primera sells, use the following guide for Inner Diameter: . 38.3 mm for Primera's ToughCoat CDR . 24.9 mm for the Hockey Rink Disc, Business Card Disc and 80mm CD • Outer Margin The Outer Margin refers to where the printing will cut off around the outer edge of your disc. The size of the printable surface can vary from one type of media to the next. This allows you to set the outer margin in millimeters allowing you to print all the way to the edge regardless of the type of disc you are using. • Config Utility This button launches the Configuration Utility. This Utility is also available in the Print Center by selecting the Disc Publisher and clicking the Configure Icon. This utility is used to report ink levels, clean and change ink cartridges, and align your color and black cartridges for optimal print quality. In addition, this utility will allow you to center and adjust your printed image. Refer to section 2-B of this manual for a detailed description of this program. • Enable Low Ink Warning The Low Ink Warning basically keeps you from printing discs if one ore more of the colors in your ink cartridge are running out. Your Bravo monitors the amount of ink used when printing and will stop printing if one or more of your colors is within 10% of being empty, and the LEDs on the top will flash in unison. If you press the Cartridge button on the top of the Bravo it will continue to print, but you will want to closely monitor the discs that print. If discoloration occurs, you are most likely out of one or more colors and will want to change cartridges. Please refer to section 2-B for instructions on how to change and align ink cartridges. • Save As Default The Save As Default button will save the current settings as the system-wide defaults. • Restore Defaults The Restore Defaults button will restore the driver settings to the factory defaults. 42 Creating Discs Section 4: Interpreting the Publisher's Indicator Lights The Power and Busy LED indicator lights located on the top of the Publisher can tell you a lot about what is happening inside the Publisher.
