What’s LightScribe?

LightScribe is a new Media technology that Hewlett-Packard announced for labeling Blank CD discs and Blank DVD discs without using labels.

How do they work?

LightScribe works by having a special coating on the non-data side so that you can burn to the disc using the same laser used for burning data. LightScribe is currently lightscribe dvd rw discsonly available in greyscale which creates an image in black-and-white although LightScribe DVD & CD are now available in color such as blue, green, red and yellow. Currently you can only produce LightScribe pictures in black and white but there are a variety of brands on the market.

How do I use them?

After you have burnt your data onto your discs, you can just pop it out, flip it over, and use a special LightScribe Media software application to have the drive burn a "silkscreen quality" image of your choice right into the disc.

There are a number of sites that supply software to use to produce your images or download ready made images.

Why is this better than labels?
