| 1246107 | 2011-11-28 23:43:00 | I could go with a pixma iP4700 or similar, but for printing on several hundred CDs, I would probably find a print company to do it for me, it would be too time consuming to do it yourself, unless thats what you are being paid to do ;) That's what I thought but the companies we tried only printed labels which we had to stick on ourselves. Does anyone know of a North Shore company that does both? |

| 1246110 | 2011-11-29 08:43:00 | For the volume you're doing, it might be cheaper to get a professional firm to do it for you (assuming the CDs are all the same). | somebody (208) | ||
| 1246111 | 2011-11-29 22:32:00 | Don't use sticky labels ! I did a whole batch of DVD's a few years ago that way - looked great for a few months, then some started to 'ripple' and peel off. All of them made a heck of a noise when spinning. |

I would look at out-sourcing a job like that. |

All of them made a heck of a noise when spinning. We use sticky labels at work all the time. Never had one come off providing that you don't try to stick them on to disks designed to be printed on . Use a CD Stomper and CD Stomper Pro labels.. Mind you the life expectancy of CDs/ DVDs we do here are about 6 months. At home i use a Canon inkjet printer to print to the disks.. |

| 1246115 | 2011-11-30 20:31:00 | They definitely last longer than 6 months. Mine are years old and haven't peeled off yet. They look just as good as the Mitsubishi Azo CDs they were stuck to, which still look and work the same as the day they were burnt. |
