Printing on CDs and DVDs
Your printer includes a special tray that lets you print 
customized text, graphics, and photos directly on any ink jet-
printable CD or DVD. The Epson Print CD software makes 
it easy to import your own photos, add text, and modify your 
designs with a variety of special effects. You can print on both 
regular 12-cm and 8-cm mini CDs and DVDs.
Caution: Use only ink jet-printable CDs and DVDs for printing. 
Thermal-printable and regular CDs and DVDs should not be used 
with this printer.
Cleaning the Rollers
Before you print on a CD or DVD, you need to clean the 
rollers inside your printer by feeding and ejecting several 
sheets of plain paper.
1. Make sure your printer is turned on and several sheets of 
letter-size plain paper are loaded.
2. Press the

paper button to feed a sheet of paper through 
the printer.
3. Repeat step 2 several times.
Inserting a CD or DVD
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.
1. Turn on your printer.
Note: Before you insert a CD or DVD, make sure the printer is 
turned on. Otherwise, the disc may not be positioned correctly.
2. Remove any paper from the sheet feeder.
3. If the output tray is open, push it all the way in.
4. Lift up the printer cover, then press and release the front 
cover as shown to open the CD/DVD tray guide.
5. Close the printer cover.
6. Place one CD or DVD on the CD/DVD tray with the 
white or printable side face-up. Make sure the disc lies flat 
in the tray.
To print on a small CD or DVD (8-cm), place the small 
CD/DVD ring on the tray first, then place the CD or DVD 
inside the ring.
Caution: Make sure you always use the small CD/DVD ring 
when printing on 8-cm CDs or DVDs, and that the disc and ring lie 
flat on the tray; otherwise the printer may be damaged.
