Epson Print CD

Greetings,

I have a new (refurb from Epson) 960 printer with capability of printing
directly on CD-ROMs and DVDs. My question is: Must I use the bundled
"Print CD" software to generate artwork for the labels or can I produce
it with Photoshop? Any tips for the latter?

Thanks!

You can use Photoshop to create your artwork.Just save it in a folder,then
import it when you are in Print Cd.I usually put my customs in my
pictures/cd labels.By the way,good luck with your 960.Mine bit the dust 2
weeks after the warranty ran out!

Cool, thanks! But I don't want to use Print CD, I want to print
directly from Photoshop.

that should be no trouble, just make a template layer to the size of
your cd and then use a clipping path of your artwork. you might want
to print just lite template outline to get things lined up first.

Illustrator would be a better program to use for that sorta thing if
you have it. you could also search the web for any free templates all
setup for ya....

This page does not specifically mention 960.
