Print on CD and DVD discs with Epson R200 and R300
Authored by: Brian Nash on Dec 02, '04 03:17:29PM

The Epson Print CD program is a convoluted mess. I create CD/DVD artwork in Adobe Illustrator using my custom template. Artwork is masked to fit automatically.

  1. Choose Page Setup, A4 and Manual Feed.
  2. Select Media Type: CD/DVD.
  3. Line up the white triangle on the tray and select Print.

Download the R200/R300 Illustrator template here.

I've updated the template as of December 12. There are now versions for Illustrator8 and IllustratorCS. A number of other updates were made to the templates to correct various problems. Download the updated version (same link as before).

Brian you are the man. I couldn't agree with you more Epson's Print CD program is an absolute joke, it's definitely the most lacking piece of software I have ever encountered. I downloaded your file and opened it with Illustrator 10 and it was almost perfect. Which brings me to my question. How did you set up this file. I'd like to slightly nudge the template up about 1mm. Also what's the process for printing on a CD that is printable all the way to the hole. Thanks again, you saved my sanity and this printer from going through my bedroom window.

Never mind, I figured it out. I just had to make an extremely minor adjustment. I can't thank you enough.
