Directions for the CD Stomper

The CD Stomper allows you to stamp custom labels onto your homemade CDs.

The CD Stomper is a program and device that allows you to create professional-looking customized labels for your custom CD labels. You can write text or even upload photos for your CD labels using a computer, and then print them out and stamp them onto your disc using a special device. Using the CD Stomper is pretty easy and requires just a few basic steps.

Things You'll Need

• CD Stomper software
• CD Stomper printable adhesive label sheets
• CD Stomper stamper
• CDs
• PC with printer

Instructions

Creating

1. Install and run the CD Stomper software on your computer.

2. Select "Templates" and select the template that matches the label sheets you're using. There will be a virtual diagram of the label sheet on the computer so you make the right selection.

3. Design your label by clicking the corresponding buttons in the software window. There's a button for uploading background images, clip art and text. You can move the images/text around the virtual CD with the mouse and then press the left-click button to merge it down.

Printing and Stomping

1. Load your printer with the label sheets. They should be arranged with the glossy part of the sheet facing upward so the printer prints on that side.

2. Click the "Print" button in the bottom-right corner of the CD Stomper software window. This will print out your custom label onto the label sheet.

3. Remove the adhesive backing from the printed label and place it around the ring of the CD stamping device with the adhesive side up.

4. Place a CD face down around the ring of the CD stamping device.

5. Press down on the device to stamp the label onto the CD.
