• Use only ink jet-printable CDs and DVDs for printing. Thermal-printable and regular CDs and DVDs should not be used with this printer.
• Make sure the data, music, or video is burned on your ink jet-printable CD or DVD before you print. Otherwise, dirt or scratches on the surface may cause errors when you burn the data.
• Always use the small CD/DVD adapter when you print on 8-cm discs, and make sure the disc and adapter lie flat on the tray; otherwise the printer may be damaged.
• Before you insert the disc, make sure that no dust or dirt is on the CD/DVD tray, as this may damage the disc’s data side.
• Do not insert the CD/DVD tray while the printer is printing; otherwise, your printer may be damaged or the surface of the disc may become dirty or scratched.
• Be sure to use the CD/DVD tray provided with this printer. If you use another tray, there may be a gap in the print position and printing may not be performed properly.
• Depending on your disc type, smearing may occur or the printed surface may be sticky even after it has dried. If smearing or stickiness occurs, you may need to adjust the print quality or try a different brand of CD or DVD.
• You can set the printable area for your discs using Epson Print CD. Make sure the settings you choose are appropriate for the CD or DVD you are printing on; otherwise, you may stain the CD/DVD tray or disc.
