Prism Plus!™ Thermal CD Printer
Frequently Asked Questions

These are some of the questions that we hear most often from people interested in purchasing the Prism Plus!™ CD Printer, a proven method for custom labeling that prints high-resolution text and graphics directly on the surface of your CD-R or CD-ROM.

What types of media can the CD Printer print on?

The CD Printer, which uses thermal transfer technology, has the best results on smooth media that is neither porous nor ink jet printable. The best media are lacquer and thermal white coated.

What kind of maintenance does the printer require?

Maintenance is generally limited to replacing the print ribbon and cleaning the print head with each new ribbon. The print head generally needs to be replaced every 10,000 full cd printings.

What print ribbon do I use for lacquer, matte, or white-coated media?

All of our print ribbons are multi-purpose. All you need to do is select the color.

What ribbon colors are available?

  • Single-Color Ribbons: (The lowest cost printing solution)
           - Our standard single colors are Black & Red. Other single              colors are available upon request (minimum quantities              are required)
  • Two-Color Ribbons: (Economical spot color solution
            - Red & Black, Green & Black, or Blue & Black
  • Three-Color Ribbons: (For full color printing)

How many CDs can I print per ribbon?

Approximately 2,100 to 40,000 CDs per single-color ribbon. The quantity will vary according to the size of what you are printing (because of the ribbon saving feature) on the CD, and whether you have selected single-pass or double-pass printing.

What is the warranty on the printer?

There is a 6-month warranty for standalone printers that includes depot repair, and the repair or replacement of any defective non-consumable parts. Upgrade to one year or a Rapid Exchange warranty. Call Rimage for pricing and details.

What software programs are available to print labels?

Rimage's CD Designer is provided with the CD Printer and is designed specifically for creating label images. Also, the CD Printer Driver allows you to print labels that you create with any of your existing graphic applications.

Does the printer work with a Unix, Macintosh, or IBM compatible?

Rimage printers are supported only in Windows 95/98, NT4, 2000, & XP.
