Graphic designers can compose labels using the software of their choice.
One unique aspect of the Rimage PrismPlus! CD/DVD Color Printer is when used in a suitable Rimage system, is its Perfect Print feature. Perfect Print enables you to print variable data such as names and account numbers on a disc that has already been silk-screened.
An optical sensor in the Rimage transporter detects a small index mark that is silk-screened in the index ring along with your silk-screened design. The transporter then rotates the disc to the correct orientation so your customized printing will always be aligned with your original silk-screened artwork. More information on Perfect Print and how to set up your artwork for maximum effectiveness.

- Ribbon Saver - Reduces ribbon waste by using only the amount needed for printing, lowering printing cost and maximizing throughput.
