Direct Disc Printing with Canon Printers Software. Printing directly to CD, DVD, and Blu-ray: PIXMA iP7220. Canon templates in the 'Change Label Template.

I have used Cover Designer with many Canon Printers over the years to print CDs and DVDs using the inserted tray with great success. My last printer, a Pixma ip4950 has had to be replaced and I have just bought a Pixma ip7250. I have found that I cannot select the CD tray in the source dropdown in the setup, as with previous models. It only shows 'cassette' with no other option and consequently prints only on paper. I have managed to access the tray using Canon's own supplied CD printing program, but this is hopeless, as it does not allow the printing to go near the centre for full face printing. It leaves a large white unprinted space around the centre. I have lots of Cover Designer files I need to be able to print from, but now find I can't.

I did find the tray settings for the printer from another source who seemed to have been successful in printing CDs etc. Unfortunately I can't find that link now. Has anyone been successful in direct disc printing on the ip7250 and if so, HOW? Thanks in anticipation. I've solved it! I'd missed out one of the stages in the setup process to access the tray. Because I hadn't had to do that for the last four years since the last setup from new, I had forgotten it needed doing.

My fault - sorry! I am still having problems getting the correct settings for the 'Tray J'. The correct width and length and X and Y to correctly line up the disc on the tray.

Once set up it's a 'piece of cake'. It's just getting it right in the first place. SO, is there anyone out there has the correct tray settings to use Nero Cover Designer program with the Tray J that is used in the Canon Pixma ip7250? Thanks for the help so far.

Anyway, there are a quite a few setup stages to get it to work properly. Once done and set up it is fairly easy. Epson Lq-2550 Driver Download.
