While the iP7250 delivers quite good results when printing photos and CDs, handling and software, however, are again beneath contempt.
To print a CD it must be inserted into the attached carrier, which is then inserted into the open and undercover fed automatically.
So the theory. Since I almost exclusively bedrucke CDs with this printer, the Inner Cover is open by default Dia. I impart now a print job and confirm the preview, I asks the driver software, close the inner cover and to confirm by pressing a key. Then the printer rattles a little to himself and already comes the invitation to open the inner cover, and insert the print media, which in turn must be confirmed by pressing a key.
Schwachsinniger It could not.
Nice however, is the fact that the outer cover opens when printing on A4 by itself. Thus, the printer is at least somewhat protected from dust when not in use.
The automatic shutdown does not work by the way, if you use the printer via WLAN.
When printing on CDs from Photoshop and Co should incidentally urgently create a template with white / transparent areas at the positions where the envisaged media can not be printed.
Although I would expect that the printer saves the unprintable areas by no means automatically, so that you do - if you do not mind when building the template - the CD carrier einsaut complete with ink.
As unfortunately common in this price range, the thing ink like a mountain goat eats water at 35 ° C in the shade. A set XL inks will cost even the small matter of about 80, - EUR and reaches or exceeds the original price of the printer so.
