| 1245483 | 2011-11-26 00:32:00 | A while ago I bought a box of these Verbatim DVDs from Warehouse Stationery that can be direct printed on using your DVD Writer. I finally got around to trying them out using LightScribe Simple Labeller (www.lightscribe.com). I have recently purchased a new Liton iHBS212 Blue Ray writer. I was sceptical that a writer could actually write a label direct onto a DVD. I used LightScribe Simple Labeller to make a simple title only design. I then placed the Verbatim specially coated disc upside down into my writer and waited a few minutes for it to be printed onto the label side of the DVD. I believe that the writers laser causes a chemical reaction on the coated surface of the DVD thus giving you a DVD with a printed label. It works a treat but the free version lets you print any colour you like as long as it is black. This could be better than labelling my discs with a felt pen. Anybody else tried this? |

They work fine and are full colour so they do look impressive. I have now converted to a colour laser printer. It is hard to find media that you can print on when using a laser printer. |

| 1245489 | 2011-11-26 05:03:00 | I got software with my LS drive. I can print in full colour, i do recall that you need to get a different type of disk to do colour (not the gold ones). | icow (15313) | ||

I have a heap of the gold ones, I got a box of 20 so they will keep me going for a while. What programme are you using? |
