Canon MG5450 Direct CD/DVD Printer Template in V 5.00

[austinw]

I have recently bought the above printer but it is not listed in the Audio Label drop down template menu for printing direct to CD or DVD. The printer uses a tray which is inserted into the printer. I'd be grateful for any help you can offer. Just like to say as well what a superb product Audio Label is, had no issues with it at all using my old Epson printer but this is the first time I've tried printing direct to disc.

UPDATE 04/10/2013 - AudioLabel 5.00 (Build 6) now includes the Canon MG5450 Direct CD Printer template, so there is no need to make a custom template.

Hi,

Yes, you can print directly on the disc in AudioLabel using the Canon MG5450; although, you will need to make a custom template.

Please go to the "Change Label Template" dialog and then click the "Create New" button. From there, enter "Canon MG5450" for the Name, select "Milimeters" for your Units, and also select "CD/DVD Printer" for your Paper Size. Then enter the following dimensions for the disc:

Left: 6.1 mm
Top: 60.9 mm
Outer Diameter: 118.0 mm
Inner Diameter: 41.0 mm

You should adjust the "Inner Diameter" to the actual hole size of your ink jet printable disc. Next "Save" your template and make sure it is selected in the "Change Label Template" dialog. From this point, printing should be straight forward; although, it's always recommended that you test print on a scrap disc before using the real deal.

Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Thanks so much for your very quick reply Nicole, I'll try that and hopefully that will be problem sorted.
