Disc
Serialization:
CDman
offers the possibility of printing a serial number, a series of
letters or a barcode on each CD, for internal use, for
identification and tracking purposes. The barcode or
alphanumeric fonts are printed on the disc with an ink jet
process.
This
service requires an additional operation which affects the price
of your CD. Prices start at $0.32 / unit discounts for
orders of 2000 or more
The
serialization prints in the space between our template spec B
and spec C. Since the inkjet head that prints the numbers rubs
on the disc you should not include disc artwork in this area
-especially if you are using CMYK colors. Therefore, to acheive
the best results use Template "A" if you are adding
serialization.
Listed
below are some features of the printer used for disc
serialization:
Better
results can be achieved with six characters on one line. The
best option would be 5 x 7 tl. Due to space limitation on the
disc surface, the serial number or barcode should be printed in
a single line format. A serial number or a barcode can only be
printed once on the same disc. The designated numbers of a
series of numbers or barcode can increase or decrease by
constant only. It is possible to print more than six characters
(please contact your Customer Service Coordinator for more
information).
