Burn a Disc Label Using LightScribe
LightScribe Direct Disc Labeling is a disc labeling technology that
enables you to burn disc labels simply by flipping the disc over and
putting them back in the same disc drive that burned your data.
LightScribe technology combines the CD or DVD drive of your
computer with specially coated discs to produce precise, silkscreen-
quality labels.
Note: Using LightScribe, you can only print disc labels. You cannot
print other types of labels using LightScribe technology.
To burn a disc label using LightScribe, do this:
1. Open LabelPrint and display the Print page.
Note: You must have selected LightScribe as your label type. See
Select a Label Type on p.11.
2. Click . The LightScribe wizard opens.
3. Select a quality level:
• Best (Recommended) - Provides the sharpest contrast with
the longest burn time. Use Best level for important business
transactions, gifts, and personal keepsakes.
• Normal - Provides moderate burn time with good contrast.
Use Normal level for professional labels.
• Draft - Provides the fastest burn time with lowest contrast.
Use Draft level for utility labels.
4. Click Preview to see how your LightScribe disc might appear
after labelling.
Note: Text or images that extend beyond the editable region are
cropped when printing. If your label is cropped, you may select a
different layout style on the Edit Layout page. See Edit a Label’s
Layout on p.16.
