Frequently Asked Questions: Printing

CMYK Colour mode?

CD's, DVD's and paper parts should be printed in CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow & Black) colour mode. RGB (Red, Green & Blue) colour mode is used to display images on screen. Please supply all your artwork to us in CMYK. If in doubt, contact us for advise ... we won't bite - honest.

Direct Onbody Inkjet Disk Print?

For qty's below 500, inkjet printing directly onto cd or dvd is the most cost effective method. It is better than applying stick on labels and is photo realistic. You can also opt for a laquered film to make the disk more durable and water resistant.

What is Spot Printing?

Spot printing involves printing uniform colours onto the disc. The colours used do not mix. Colours are usually chosen from the Pantone Matching System of colours PMS. If you wish to have your disc spot printed then make sure you do not use gradients, drop shadows, etc in you design. You also need to supply us with the PMS colour codes and how many colours are to printed onto your cd / dvd.
