Installing Ink Cartridges
Supported Ink Cartridges
The G4 Disc Publisher uses 1 tri-color ink cartridge and 1 black ink cartridge. The part numbers for
these cartridges are V102C (color) and V101B (black). If other cartridges are installed, the G4 Disc
Publisher will not function. These cartridges are available from any Microboards reseller.
Refill kits or non-Microboards ink cartridges are not recommended for use in the G4 Disc
Publisher system. Use of non-Microboards cartridges will cause the printer to fail. Use of
refilled cartridges may cause the G4 Disc Publisher to fail and may affect your warranty.
Loading / Replacing Ink Cartridges
Cartridges can be changed while the G4 Disc Publisher is on. The Out of Ink LED will light if any
cartridge is beginning to run low on ink.
With the printer on, open the front cover.
Lift the cartridge latch by lifting the center of the front of the latch.
If replacing an empty ink cartridge, remove the cartridge that needs changing by sliding the
cartridge towards the front of the Printer.
Remove each new print cartridge to be installed from its packaging.
Remove the protective covering from the printheads before installing the cartridges.
Slide the correct ink cartridge into the correct slot – color on the left, black on the right.
Lower each cartridge latch until it locks into place by applying gentle pressure to the finger
depression. Do not try to force the latch down.
Close the front cover.
Wait for the cartridge priming cycle to complete before sending any print jobs to the printer.
The priming cycle will take approximately 70-80 seconds.
Any time you change ink cartridges, you should always wait until the printer has primed the
cartridges before sending it a print job. The priming cycle will take 70-80 seconds to complete
after the door is closed.
Lowering the Cartridge Latch
The latch on the right in is the
correct position. The left latch is
being closed.
Inserting or Removing a Cartridge

Loading Discs
The next step is to load your G4 Disc Publisher with discs. The system will accept CD or DVD 120
mm (12 cm) inkjet printable discs. If the disc does not have an inkjet printable surface, the ink will not
adhere to the surface of the disc. The G4 Disc Publisher will only accept 12 cm discs. Business card
or 8 cm discs are not supported by this system.
Figure 1 Figure 2
Load the first 5 or 6 discs flat, as seen in figure 1.
Load the rest of the discs at an angle, against the wide input rod, as seen in figure 2.
The G4 Disc Publisher will hold a maximum of 50 discs. DO NOT load more than 50 discs in the
system, as this may cause the discs to feed incorrectly.
Front Control Panel
The AC power switch located on the back of the G4 Disc Publisher must be turned on first in order to
supply power to the Front Control Panel.
The Power Button on the front panel of the G4 Disc Publisher turns the G4 Disc Publisher Printer on
and off. It may take a few seconds for the G4 Disc Publisher Printer to turn on after you press the
Power Button. This does not affect power to the drive within the G4 Disc Publisher.
To turn off the power to the printer using the Control Panel, you will need to press and hold the Power
Button for 3 seconds. Once the Ink Light, Media Light, and Power Light begin flashing, you can
release the Power Button.
The green Power/Activity Light flashes when the printer is active, either while printing or initializing.
The Cancel Button can be used to discontinue printing. When using PrintWrite, this will only affect
the current disc being printed. If printing through other applications, this will either cancel the entire
print job or just the current disc depending on the label being printed and the application being used.
Any disc being printed when the Cancel button is pressed will be ejected into the Output bin.
If a disc is not detected
during printing, the Media
Light will flash. Verify that
you have discs in the input
hopper and press the Media
Light to load and print the
next disc.
The Ink Light will come on if
the ink cartridge is low or
empty.
The Output Bin Indicator
will light if the Output Bin is
full, and will flash as a
reminder to clean the rollers.

Printing Preferences
Access the Printing Preferences by clicking the Start Button on your Windows computer. Select
Settings and then select Printers. Right click on the Microboards G4 printer icon, then select
Printing Preferences. There are 7 tabs across the top of the window. Click each tab to see the
available settings.
Color Tab
The Color Tab allows you to
specify that the entire
image should be printed in
grayscale, or printed in
sepia. You also have
access to More Color
Options from this tab.
More Color Options
Saturation,Brightness and
Color Tone allow you to fine
tune your print image.
The four ink settings allow you to
change the volumes used of
each specific ink cartridge.

Printing Preferences
14
Advanced Tab
The Advanced Tab allows you to Enable Maximum dpi setting and adjust the amount of ink placed
on the disc using the Ink Volume and Dry Time settings.
Enabling the maximum dpi will result in longer times to process your print image, reducing
throughput.
To change the Ink Volume or Dry Time settings, click the drop-down box and select Change. A
window will open with a setting bar for the option selected.
Changing the Ink Volume will affect how quickly you need to replace your ink cartridges, but also
affects the quality of the printed output.
Changing the Dry Time can increase or decrease your throughput, but if the Dry Time is set too low,
you risk the possibility that the last disc printed will not have dried before the next disc is placed on
top of it in the output bin.
The default settings are the recommended settings and should be used unless absolutely necessary.
If you choose to increase the Ink Volume, you should also increase the Dry Time.
Diameter Settings Tab
The Diameter Settings tab allows
you to change the size of the print
image to accommodate the variety of
printable surface area available on
media.
The Outer and Inner Diameters will
change the size of the area to be
printed. To avoid excessive ink
buildup, these values should never
be set so that the G4 Disc Publisher
is printing off the media.
The Parameter Unit should remain
on the 0.1mm setting for maximum
precision.
You can also select one of the preset Mask Types to change the diameter settings.

MICROBOARDS TECHNOLOGY, LLC G4 DISC PUBLISHER

Ink Tab
The Ink Levels show how
much remains of the color and
black cartridges. The amount
shown as remaining in the
Color cartridge is the individual
color with the lowest level. To
see the individual color level,
click the Advanced Ink Levels
button.
NOTE: If you place a used
cartridge in the Microboards
G4, the ink level may not be reported correctly. If the G4 can identify
the cartridge, it may report the correct ink levels; if not, it will assume
that the ink cartridge is new and will show ink levels of 100%.
Before each disc is printed, the ink levels are checked. If the level of
any one color is has reached 10%, a warning message will be
displayed on your PC and printing will be temporarily suspended.
You can either change the cartridge at this point and click OK, or
click OK to continue printing using the same cartridge.
If you continue with the same cartridge, printing will continue
uninterrupted until the ink level reaches 5%. The low ink level
warning will be displayed once more. Again, either change the
cartridge or continue.
Once the ink level reaches 3% or less, the warning will be displayed
before each print.
It is strongly recommended that you replace the cartridge at this
point.
The Ink Cartridge information includes the re-order part number for the cartridge.
Alignment Tab
Alignment values will move the
print image on the disc. Use the
graphic on the right side of the tab
as a guideline in how alignment
values should be adjusted.
The Resolution setting should
always be set at .1mm for best
results.
You may need to adjust the alignment depending on the media you are using (see page 12).

The G4 Disc Publisher Software
Your G4 uses Microboards PrintWrite 2 as the Disc Publishing software.
You can print directly from SureThing or other applications if you are only printing, but any
burning must be done using PrintWrite 2.
Microboards PrintWrite 2 Configuration
The first time you launch PrintWrite 2, you will be asked
to confirm the configuration of the G4 Disc Publisher
system. This only needs to be done the first time the
software is used, or if there is a change to your
hardware.
The Drive,Printer, and COM port will auto-detect your
hardware and enter the information. If the auto-detected
hardware is not correct, use the down arrows in each
listbox to select other available hardware. Use the Test
buttons beside each hardware entry to verify the correct
hardware has been selected.
The Name of the G4 will appear as Publisher by default.
This can be changed to any name you wish.
Please refer to the Microboards PrintWrite 2 User’s
Manual for more information on configuring and
operating PrintWrite 2.
The Microboards Printer Toolbox
To access the Microboards Toolbox, double-click the toolbox icon located
in the tool tray.
Select the Microboards G4 printer and click the buttons to access each
maintenance function of the Toolbox for the selected printer.
Cleaning
The printheads may require cleaning if the printed images
show streaks of color. This may occur if the Disc
Publisher has been idle for an extended period of time.
There are 3 levels of cleaning available: Light Clean,
Regular Clean, and Heavy Clean.
Light Clean is a low-level cleaning, using the least ink
and taking the least amount of time to complete. Regular
Clean uses more ink and takes more time. Heavy Clean
uses the most ink and takes the longest time to complete.
After each of the cleanings, a disc will be printed to verify
the cleaning results.
Running this process more than once may be required if
the quality does not improve after cleaning one time.

print, the second with 4 sets of lines – Black to
Color Horizontal, Black to Color Vertical, Black
bidi Alignment, and Color bidi Alignment.
Position the 4 slide bars in the window shown to
the right based on the line that looks best in each
of the 4 printed sets on the second disc.
Click OK when complete. The 2 discs will be
printed again using the entered pen alignment
values.
This procedure should not be a regular
necessity.
Print Test Disc
Load an unprinted disc in the input hopper prior to clicking this button to print a Test Disc image.
Advance Conveyor
This utility will run the conveyor forward for a few seconds. This utility can be used with the Cleaning
Disc, or to remove any media that is on the conveyors.
Using the Cleaning Disc
The rollers that the Microboards G4 uses to advance the disc will occasionally need to be cleaned as
they pick up dust, lint, and other airborne debris. A Cleaning Disc was included with your
Microboards G4 and should be used when the rollers become dirty.
Follow these directions to clean the rollers using the Cleaning Disc:
1. Remove the paper label from the Cleaning Disc
2. Place the Disc sticky-side down on the back roller, centered over the cone of the elevator
3. Open the G4 Toolbox and click the Advance Conveyor button. This will run the disc forward
through the G4.
4. Repeat as needed; if you are operating the Microboards G4 in a dusty environment, you may
need to perform this more than one time.
In most cases, you will be able to use your Cleaning Disc more than one time. The number of times a
Cleaning Disc can be used will depend on how much material is on the rollers. Additional Cleaning
Discs can be purchased from any Microboards certified reseller.
