    I know the answer is probably no... but can you print on a dvd using an inkjet dvd/cd printer if its a thermal dvd?

    I ordered a 100 pack of Yuden before I got a new printer... and now I dont want to be stuck with 100 dvd's I cant print on!

    Just a shot in the dark.. thanks!

    If you print on thermal disks with an inkjet printer the ink will just bead up on the surface. Even if the ink does finally dry it will smudge right off.

    I gave it a shot on my Epson R200. The image didn't look too bad, but I could wipe it off with my finger after two weeks of drying. Sorry.
