Pull! Bang! Darn!

Gimmick, without a doubt. I use a Rimage Everest II at my business that puts even commercial discs to shame. I would say even a cheap monocolor thermal like the casio CP50 is lightyears ahead of laser scribiling, especially for home use.

It's insane when all you need is one of those Casio printers.

I use a sharpie which does Arial, Times New Roman, or Bookman Old style text all for the price of $1 per 1,000 discs.

I just intalled a new samsung with lightscribe a few weeks ago, have used it on ost all my dvd backups.
Pros:
Can label dvd cd without paper, ink ect
I think it was resonable priced at just under $40.00
Can do a decent job at using just text
No messy sloppy looking cd/dvds
Cons
Too light for any images or detailing
Takes 18-10 min to label a disc
media is too costly compared to reg disc
All in all I like it but tech will improve over the years maybe deceasing burning time and media cost. I do not want to spend lots of $ for disc printers,ribbons and sure hate the paperlabels i stick with it for it's better than the altenative IMO

I got an external DVD writer ($49.95 for a Samsung in an I/O Magic case; no rebate; includes Nero 6 OEM) at the Black Friday sales that does Lightscribe, so I'm gonna at least give it a try. Making Christmas CDs and DVDs for the family. Verbatim makes LS media that costs about 1.5 times normal, so I doubt I'll use it for every day recordings.

I have it in a BenQ DL Drive that I have. Neat feature to have... will be interesting to see if they have DL flavor litescribe discs - at a decent price.

Well, it depend on the price of the blanks. Anyone knows how much is the premium? For now I just use that special CD/DVD marker, cheap and fast. Anyway the content is more important unless you want to sell it.

Not closing it after each print does not help, as the software automatically opens the door itself each time ya click the print button.
I learned the hard way NEVER to needlessly press the button to eject the tray unless i'm going to print something, cause the ribbon advances either way. Pretty sloppy on the part of casio.
I wish updated software was released to solve this problem. Instead of about 40 prints per ribbon like the package says, its more like 25 after the wasting.
All in all, its still a GREAT gadet though. Hell of alot better than a sloppy sharpie or the hassle of printing/applying labels. -

Nothing. But nothing will happen if you try. May even be some ID that identifies it as a LightScribe disk to the burner so that it wont even try on a non LightScribe disk.

I used it on two CDs and was fairly unimpressed. Not very useful as I don't usually label my DVDs,

You can purchase DVD-R in the HP brand, and the media code is CMC Magnetics: Not my favorite.
I haven't noted any problems with burning at 8X (16X media).
I did find the same media (HP DVDR Lightscribe ver 1.2) at supermediastore for $.60 per disc shipped.
I downloaded & installed the latest LightScribe drivers from the LightScribe website.
My impressions thus far (I've only labelled a few) is this: It will provide an acceptable label provided the original label to be printed is sharp, dark and has extreme contrast. The labels that I have selected to print were text and image on shiny silver top media. On the labels that I tested with an image - not predominantly text; were not well defined, and not "keepers": I gave them away and kept the inkjet printed (TYG03's) DVDRs of the same video.
I'm not certain if I would use them for customer discs, until I verify the long term integrity of the media.
I do feel, that - given enough time and experimentation: I can find a use for the media, and provide an acceptable final product.;/ l ,[____], Its a Jeep thing,
