Try2: Trouble printing with Canon Pro-100

Postby sdean7855 » Fri Jan 20, 2023 9:10 am

My Firefox doesn't play nice with this editor, so try 2

Loved the Epson CD Print program, but my old Artisan 50 printer was too troublesome. Now have the big Canon Pro-100. I have made a rudimentary printed DVD using Canon's Image Garden, but that program is an utter dud for anything beyond a bit of straight text.
Am now looking at AudioLabel and able to do pretty much of the design I could with Epson CD Print. Printing with it so far hasn't put down any ink. I start with the print menu

Then I get the printer config dialog windows which I've set like this

I then get another popup telling me to setup the CD tray....it looks like this:

So I setup up the printer...I have a picture but I've used up my 3 allowed attachments. You can see it on my non-SSL website

Note that just as I set the printer to use the Tray K, (see bottom left) and the yellow light above the bottom right button is lit
The printer shuffles the tray in and out over a couple of minutes, but never prints anything and finally spits the tray out. No error message, no messages.
Hoping to make AL work...nice reasonably priced program.

Suggestions?

I have posted a 45 second video of the printer doing its disc shuffle as it does NOT print anything

SOLVED!
I mistook the default Label Template field, which is (CD/DVD Disk Label Generic), as works for everything. Once I realized it was selectable for a host of different printers (RTFM) and scrolled down to select Canon - All Models Tray K- Print Directly,, everything worked.

I'm sold!

There is also a "Canon Pixma Pro-100 - Print Direct on CD" template
