Epson R200 and printing cd-r business cards

[Guest]

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

Hello all,
I am wondering if anyone in the group has personal experience with using the
R200 for printing the half-straight, half-round little cd-r business cards...??
I see the inkjet printable business cards for sale everywhere, but need to know
specifically how the R200 handles them, if at all. And if so, does the whole
label print or just the part common to the entire disc. I guess I'm asking if
it prints out to the round edges part of the discs or just to the straight edges
part?

Thanks so much.

Tim

If you made a template with the business card shape, I would not think
there would be a problem. I will try it on the weekend with my R300.

Just bought one specifically to print on full-sized CD's. Using Pain Shop
Pro 8.10 and can't seem to figure out where on the virtual page display
on the Print dialog box to place the image. Wasted four CD's by trail and
error and I still haven't got it right.

It will over print the label if the image is bigger than the disk. In my
attempts to print on a label, and PSP not hitting it square on, I've had
to wash the CD tray several times for the over print. I'm thinking that
the print heads won't spray beyond the CD tray, but it certainly will
spray beyond the edges of the CD label.

Just use the CD prining program which came with the printer.
