This part of the manual provides you with important general information about your printer.
About the Bundled CD-ROM and CD-R
Note the following precautions whenever handling or storing the bundled CDROM and CD-R.
Handling Precautions
When handling the disc, avoid getting finger smudges, dirt, scratches, etc. on either of its surfaces.
Should the disc become dirty, use an eyeglass cleaning cloth or some other soft cloth to wipe it lightly from the center of the disc outwards towards its edge. Never use phonograph record cleaner or any other cleaning agent.
Never write on either of the discs surfaces with a pen or pencil, or affix a sticker to the disc surfaces.
Use of a disc that is cracked or deformed, or a disc that has adhesive on it is dangerous. Never use such a disc.
Storage Precautions
Avoid storing discs in areas subjected to high temperature, high humidity, or direct sunlight.
When you are not using a disc, store it in its original case or in a commercially available CD case.
Avoid storing a disc so its label comes in direct contact with the surface of a vinyl case, bag, etc.
Warning!
Never play a CD-ROM disc on any device that is not specifically designed to play back CD-ROM discs. Audio output at a high volume setting creates the risk of damaged hearing and damage to audio speakers.

This part of the manual tells you how to load and replace batteries, how to load the ink ribbon cassette, and how to perform other basic setups before using the printer.
Power Requirements
You can power your printer using the optionally available AC adaptor (ADA12280L) or eight AA-size alkaline batteries.
Using Batteries
This section explains how to set up the printer for operation under battery power.
Low battery at power up
If the printer detects low battery power when you turn it on, it displays the message LOW BATTERY for about one second.
Low battery at the start of a print operation
The message shown below appears when low battery power is detected at the start of a print operation.
When the above message appears, replace the batteries or use the optional AC adaptor for power.
If the print operation is the first one after turning on the printer, you need to press SET in order to proceed with the print operation.
If the print operation is not the first one after turning on the printer, the above message will appear for one second, and then the print operation will start automatically.

Important!
See the separate Printing Precautions sheet for important information about printing conditions.
Do not try to use this printer to print on a mini CD-R or a CD-R business card. Doing so can damage the printer. Use the printer to print on 12cm discs only.
We recommend that you print on a disc or other media before you record anything on it. Printing on a disc that already has data recorded on it can cause the data to become corrupted.
Check your label before you print it!
Pressing the PREVIEW button at any time during text input or before you actually start printing will display a preview of your label. For details, see page 47.
Important!
Make sure there is nothing in front of the printer to interfere with the movement of the disc tray.
10. After making sure that PRINT is selected on the display, press SET .
What appears on the display depends on the print pattern you selected (page 31).
See Printing a Label on page 51 for details about printing.
Pressing SET above will cause the disc tray to open part way. Carefully pull out the disc tray until it appears as shown in the illustration.
If the disc tray does not open automatically, press the printers button.
See page 55 for information about configuring disc tray settings.

Set the disc onto the tray so it is inside of these raised guides.
Make sure that the recording surface is facing downwards, and the printing surface is facing upwards.
Guidelines
Printing is performed here.
Important!
Check to make sure that the disc tray and the disc are free of dirt, dust, and foreign matter, which can damage the disc surface and make recording to it impossible.
Make sure that the disc is facing properly. If the recording side of the disc is facing upwards, the printer will print on the recording side, which will make it impossible to record data onto the disc.

Part 10 - Connecting to a Computer
Your printer comes bundled with a CD-ROM that contains the DISC TITLE PRINTER label layout software, which allows you to create original labels on your computer. Then you can use the bundled USB cable to connect the printer to your computer and print the labels.
Important!
In this manual, the term label layout software refers to the DISC TITLE PRINTER application.
See the separate DISC TITLE PRINTER Application Users Guide on the CD-ROM for information about using the label layout software.
To connect the printer to your computer
1. Install the label layout software on your computer.
See the separate Installation Guide and the DISC TITLE PRINTER Application Users Guide on the CD-ROM.
2. Load batteries into the printer or connect the optionally available AC adaptor for power.
See page 15 of this manual for more information.
3. Make sure that the printer is turned off.
If the printer is turned on, press ] to turn it off.
4. Connect the USB cable that comes with the printer to your computers USB port.
Important!
Printer Calibration is available for only 149.00 Euro. The full SilverFast SE Plus edition incl. Silverfast download . For the release of the SilverFast SE Plus 8.5 printer solution, LaserSoft Imaging has tied up a very special introductory package.
Connect the cable directly to one of your computers USB ports. Hub connection or other indirect connection can cause misoperation of the printer.
Before using the printers USB port for the first time, you will need to remove the sticker that covers it.
5. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the printers USB port.
Make sure that the side of the connector marked with an arrow is facing downwards.
6. On the printer, press [ to turn it on.
7. On your computer, create the label and execute the print command.
Before printing, press the printers COMPUTER LINK button so the message READY TO TRANSFER DATA is on the display.
Connecting the printer to your computer the first time after you install the application automatically starts up an installation wizard for installation of the USB driver. Follow the instructions that appear on your computer display to install the driver. Note that the wizard will appear only the first time you connect.
If your computer is running Windows XP, the message shown below will appear part way through installation of the USB driver. When it does, click the Continue Anyway button and proceed with the installation.
If your computer is running Windows 2000, the warning message Digital Signature Not Found may appear part way through USB driver installation. If it does, click the Yes button and proceed with the installation.
The above messages will not appear if your computer is running Windows 98, 98SE, or Me.
8. After you are finished printing, press the printers ] button to turn it off.
9. Disconnect the USB cable from the printers USB port.
Important!
Note that the USB cable provides data transfer capabilities only. Power is not delivered to the printer from the computer over the USB cable. Because of this, the printer needs to have batteries installed or the optionally available AC adaptor connected to power it.
It is highly recommended that you use the optionally available AC adaptor to power the printer during data communication.
While the optionally available AC adaptor is connected to the printer, its Auto Power Off feature (page 19) is disabled as long as the printer is connected to a computer.
Reference
This section contains supplementary information about user maintenance, troubleshooting, and technical details.
User Maintenance
A dirty print head can cause poor printing. Use the procedure below to keep the print head clean.
Important! Software Cw Reviews
Use a cotton swab or some other soft object to clean the print head. We recommend use of a very fine cotton swab for cleaning.
Note that you will need to turn on the printer in order to open the disc tray and front cover. Be sure to turn off the printer after opening the disc tray and front cover.
If you are using the optionally available AC adaptor to power the printer, disconnect the AC adaptor from the printer after opening the front cover.

Memory
Let's say that some one knows your master password, but only misses the keyfile, if you use a non unique file (like a song found on the internet) that person can download that file and use it as keyfile. You don't need to embed a keyfile, you can use any file, it's not recommended do use a file that can be found somewhere else (like on the internet). Crack keepass master password. But you can record an audio and use it as keyfile, that file is unique and can't be found anywhere else, save it on a safe place. If you want to learn how to embed files into images see this guide: . And it is difficult to define the strength of non-random passwords, so while '6 words is plenty with high transformation round' holds for randomly selected words, it is difficult to know whether that holds for non-random selections.

Part 1 - Getting Acquainted
This part of the manual provides you with important general information about your printer.
About the Bundled CD-ROM and CD-R
Note the following precautions whenever handling or storing the bundled CDROM and CD-R.
Handling Precautions
When handling the disc, avoid getting finger smudges, dirt, scratches, etc. on either of its surfaces.
Should the disc become dirty, use an eyeglass cleaning cloth or some other soft cloth to wipe it lightly from the center of the disc outwards towards its edge. Never use phonograph record cleaner or any other cleaning agent.
Never write on either of the discs surfaces with a pen or pencil, or affix a sticker to the disc surfaces.
Use of a disc that is cracked or deformed, or a disc that has adhesive on it is dangerous. Never use such a disc.
Storage Precautions
Avoid storing discs in areas subjected to high temperature, high humidity, or direct sunlight.
When you are not using a disc, store it in its original case or in a commercially available CD case.
Avoid storing a disc so its label comes in direct contact with the surface of a vinyl case, bag, etc.
Warning!
Never play a CD-ROM disc on any device that is not specifically designed to play back CD-ROM discs. Audio output at a high volume setting creates the risk of damaged hearing and damage to audio speakers.

CW-75 Printer Features
The CW-75 printer lets you quickly and easily print disc labels that include text and logos.
A collection of label layout templates helps to make creation of original labels quick and easy.
Three built-in print patterns (page 31) and 24 built-in label formats (page 32) provide you with tools to create labels for a wide variety of applications.
You can also select from a collection of logos for your labels (page 39).

Auto text formatting for beautiful labels every time!
Auto text formatting (page 40) automatically lays out text in accordance with the number of characters and the amount of available space. Proportional spacing (page 45) adjusts spacing between characters so it always looks natural.
Incorporate logos into labels.
A total of 10 built-in often-used terms and logos are easily accessible for input into a label (page 39).
A host of other layout tools for perfect labels every time!

Front
Press to open the disc tray.
Front cover
Open when loading or removing the ink ribbon cassette.
Positioning guide pegs
Use these pegs to set the positioning guide correctly when you place the disc onto the disc tray.
Back
Battery compartment
If the disc tray will not open due to printer malfunction, you can open it manually by inserting a thin, pointed object (at least 20 mm ( 13 16 ') long, and less than 1.5 mm ( 1 16 ') thick) into this hole.
Use this hole to manually open the disc tray only when absolutely necessary. Do not use it to normally open the tray.
Do not use a toothpick or other object with an easily breakable tip. Doing so creates the risk of malfunction.
AC adapter terminal
Connect the optionally available AC adaptor here.
USB port
Connect the USB cable that comes with the printer here when connecting to your PC.
Part 2 - Getting Ready
This part of the manual tells you how to load and replace batteries, how to load the ink ribbon cassette, and how to perform other basic setups before using the printer.
Power Requirements
You can power your printer using the optionally available AC adaptor (ADA12280L) or eight AA-size alkaline batteries.
Using Batteries
This section explains how to set up the printer for operation under battery power.
Low battery at power up
If the printer detects low battery power when you turn it on, it displays the message LOW BATTERY for about one second.
Low battery at the start of a print operation
The message shown below appears when low battery power is detected at the start of a print operation.
When the above message appears, replace the batteries or use the optional AC adaptor for power.
If the print operation is the first one after turning on the printer, you need to press SET in order to proceed with the print operation.
If the print operation is not the first one after turning on the printer, the above message will appear for one second, and then the print operation will start automatically.
Important!
Replace batteries at least once a year, even if the low battery message does not appear during that time.
To load batteries into the printer
1. Slide the battery compartment cover in the direction indicated by the arrow in the illustration, and open the cover.
2. Pull the battery case from the compartment.
Important!
Do not apply excessive force when opening the battery compartment cover, and never try to open it further than it goes naturally. Doing so can damage the cover.
3. Load four of the batteries into the upper part of the case. Next, turn the case over and then load the remaining four batteries.
INSERT
Double-check to make sure that the positive (+) and negative () ends of the batteries are facing correctly when you load them.
4. Slide the battery case back into the battery compartment.
INSERT
Orient the battery case so the INSERT arrow is facing towards the battery compartment when you slide it in.
Important!
Check the battery case for dirt, dust, and other foreign matter before sliding it back into the battery compartment.
5. Close the battery compartment cover and slide it in the direction of the arrow in the illustration to lock it.
Battery Life
A set of fresh batteries should supply enough power to print about 200 disc labels (at 20C (68F), one print operation per disc).
Printing text or graphics that have a lot of black areas, or printing under low temperatures shortens battery life.
Replacing the Battery Cover onto Its Hinges
The battery compartment cover may come off its hinges when you open it. If it does, perform the following steps to replace it.
Aligning the cover to the right, insert the upper hinge as shown in the illustration.
Slide the bottom hinge into place as shown in the illustration.
Using the AC Adaptor
You can use the optionally available AC adaptor (AD-A12280L) to power the printer from a standard household wall outlet.
Note the following important precautions whenever you use the AC adaptor to power your printer.
To connect the AC adaptor
Important!
Use only the AC adaptor model specified for this printer.
1. Connect the power cord to the AC adaptor.

Memory
Let's say that some one knows your master password, but only misses the keyfile, if you use a non unique file (like a song found on the internet) that person can download that file and use it as keyfile. You don't need to embed a keyfile, you can use any file, it's not recommended do use a file that can be found somewhere else (like on the internet). Crack keepass master password. But you can record an audio and use it as keyfile, that file is unique and can't be found anywhere else, save it on a safe place. If you want to learn how to embed files into images see this guide: . And it is difficult to define the strength of non-random passwords, so while '6 words is plenty with high transformation round' holds for randomly selected words, it is difficult to know whether that holds for non-random selections.
