Adjusting the Print Density
If ink smears on your printed CDs or DVDs, you may need to adjust the color saturation or 
ink density. Discs from different manufacturers may absorb ink differently, so you may need 
to adjust the density for each type of disc. Follow these instructions to print a color saturation 
check pattern and make adjustments as necessary.
1. Insert a test CD or DVD for printing, as described on page 42.
2. Start EPSON Print CD.
3. Select 
Print from the File menu.
4. Make sure 
Stylus Photo R320 is selected, then click Print Density Confirmation 
Pattern 
(Windows) or Print Density Check Pattern (Macintosh).
5. Click 
Print.
6. After the pattern is printed, examine the print and make the 
Print Color Correction 
(Windows) or Color Correction (Macintosh) setting lighter or darker as necessary.
You can print three density patterns on one disc. Each pattern is printed in a different 
location.
7. After the first pattern is printed, adjust the setting, then repeat steps 4 through 6, 
selecting 
Second or Second Time to print the second pattern. 
8. If you want to try a third Color Correction setting, you can repeat steps 4 through 6 again 
and select 
Third or Third Time.
9. Remove the CD or DVD and let it dry for at least 24 hours. Then check the saturation 
levels again.
You can also use the Brightness and Contrast settings in EPSON Print CD to adjust color 
saturation. See the EPSON Print CD on-screen help for instructions.
