Introduction
Introduction
This manual provides the information needed to set up, install, and operate the PrismPlus printer
and to identify the parts.
Operating system requirements
The Rimage PrismPlus is compatible only with Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows 2003
Server. It requires one USB port.
Media requirements
You must use discs that are coated with a surface designed for thermal printing. Silver lacquer
discs without an additional thermal protective layer are not designed for thermal printing. The heat
of the thermal printing process may damage the dye layer in a CD-R.
The media in Rimage Media Kits™ is designed for optimum use in the PrismPlus. For information
about Rimage Media Kits™ – convenient packages of discs and ribbons, all guaranteed by
Rimage – contact Rimage at 800-445-8288.
Ribbon requirements
The PrismPlus requires ribbons designed specifically for use with the printer. The table below lists
the type of ribbon to use with your printer.
