Thread Name: Printing directly on CDs
Subject: Printing directly on CDs
After many false starts, dead ends and infuriating failures, I finally have software I can use to make good quality CDs. The next step is to either purchase a printer that prints labels on CDs or pay the money to have it done. I've been looking at an Epson Stylus PhotoR220 Printer which I can buy at Circuit City for $99.99. I've read the reviews from buyers on the web site and they range from wonderful to " a piece of garbage." One of the common warnings is that it's very difficult to install (a warning for someone with six fingers on each hand.) Another is that the ink cartridges are very expensive(There are 6.. each for a different color.) I know there are Catters who do this kind of thing... what kind of printer do you use?, or do you find it more economical to put it out to a company. (Any suggestions to a company who will burn CDs and labels at a reasonable price would be appreciated, too.)

Does anyone use the Epson Stylus Photo R220?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated..
