Thread Name: CD printing ?
Subject: RE: CD printing ?
Some(NOT ALL) HP models have this option. Epson used to be the only company that could do printing. the white printable hub discs are a bit more $ but make it easier to hand-lable , too, if you donot need a printed face. some (maxell?) printable hub discs come with a felt tip marker right in the pkg.
there are several on-line sources where you can bulk order discs at a saving. labels that stick on are a definte no,no. esp small address labels,for instance, as they can actually cause the disc to be out of balance and spin erratically....causing possible damage.
i guess a dedicated cd/dvdprinter might have auto feed capabilities for bulk orders, but if you are content to process them one at a time, HP has several options.
the epson inkcartridges require 6 sepearte colors, if i recall correctly. HP has 2: tri-color and black.
it is great to be able to design with photos, etc. accordingto E-how , "MediaFace, iTunes, Nero and Windows Media Player all have bundled software to help you create a CD or DVD label using your inkjet printer." there are probably others, and most will also design and or print jewel case labels cover art, track lists, etc.
Roxio, printmaster, sonic and others have programs.
