  2. $35 plus tax if your good with a few tools
    Checkout The vilage Idiots guides for building your own.

    Otherwise maybe epson 900 for $150 - $200
    Or epson 950 for about $350 (might find it for less)

    I'm giving the lexmark mod a try myself. For $35 it could be fun!

    Thanks

    If you don't want to make it yourself, and you just want some words on the disk, you can buy the Casio disk printer for about $40+ (I thnik). If you want full color and pictures, then the Epson 900 is the one. If you do not live in the USA, you might find one of the Canon printers that offers CD printing. From what I have read, they locked the firmware out of printing disks for the US models. This makes me think there are some rather large licensing concerns! You can also click on some of the advertisers here, as most of them offer the EZ/CD line of printers.

    The lexmark mod is working fairly well, for a no nonse printer, it is however, not made to last. It looks like they made the Z25 to last about 4 cartridges worth, maybe a few more. It really is a cheap POS, but for disks, that means it should last for a fair amount of time.
    Hope is the trap the world sets for you every night when you go to sleep and the only reason you have to get up in the morning is the hope that this day, things will get better... But they never do, do they?

    I recieved the Casio CW-75 CD Label Printer for my birthday this past year and I like it. With the price of DVD's less than a dollar, its not worth printing a label which costs more than a dollar. Buy DVDs (movies) all of the time but movies (copied from Satellite) are really not worth the expense.
