And then the customer (prospective?) gets it and has nothing to put it in when done? Hmmm. I would think a paper/cellophane sleeve, which costs maybe $.10 might be worth it. Just trying to help.

Hey Semi:

Your point is well taken. I failed to explain that I put my CD's in a "paper CD envelope" inside the bubble wrap. My clients don't keep CD's and don't want the plastic cases.

I'm using a Canon PIXMA IP4000. I highly recommend it, instead of any Epson!

Hope this helps. Scott, you've already pointed out the only "downer" I can think of on the little printer you showed us. Thanks for the info.
All the best, RICE (The Frazzled Arranger)


Rice ... Prior to getting the EPSON I had bought a package of 'jewel case inserts' which came with its own software, free ... It works well, as I was able to download some music images from the net, save them into the software and print them ... I wanted the CD to look the same as the jewel case insert, so I tried saving the image into the EPSON software, but it would not work ... While the EPSON will support a number of file formats, this apparently is not one of them ... I'll have to see if I can download the image from the original source into EPSON ... If so, I'll print the CDs with EPSON and the inserts with the other software, at least until I run out of the inserts I have ...
I tried using the insert software and putting a CD in the printer ... It worked but I can't get the image centered on the CD correctly ...
It was a lot easier when all I had to do was play the KB !!!
