Hi fengz !

There are 2 things I note about the burned image:

The very very straight edges of the image; and
The apparent 45 degree angle of the image.

These are the kind of thing a "clip" path imposed on an image create.

When this first happened, did you remake the design of the label?

If not, I would strongly suggest that the label should be redesigned from scratch.

Another question, have you tried other brands of media?

yes I tried a different brand and it's same thing, and also i tried remaking the design like cropping it, resizing etc

Have you tried a different program like SureThing or the LS Template Labeler?

Yes, a free trial copy of SureThing is on page:

The LS Template Labeler is on this site and is free.

I design My Custom Templates for it, and I'm finishing 4 more right now for a total of 255 in shared and private collections.
