How to Prepare CD Labels on a HP F375
The HP F375 multifunction machine is capable of printing more than just text documents or family photos. With CD label paper, anyone may print unique and personalized labels for any burned CDs in his collection. The HP F375 doesn't control how the labels appear, however, as that is handled by whichever word processing program you personally use. Preparing the printer for CD labels only requires ensuring the paper is inserted correctly. The labels can later be formatted.
