Introduction

Forget markers and adhesives. With this innovative technology, it's easy to make affordable, silkscreen-quality disc labels without a printer. LightScribe Direct Disc Labeling technology burns labels directly onto your CDs and DVDs with laser-etched precision, using the same disc drive that burns your data.

Your discs will be adorned with attractive gray-scale images similar to black-and-white photography.  And now you can take your creativity and individuality one step further with a new spectrum of colored-background LightScribe CDs!

  • Software* — LightScribe-supported software applications
  • Media* — LightScribe-specific discs with a thin dye coating

*Note: The LightScribe-enabled DVD drive and software come pre-installed on certain HP PCs, while LightScribe media is sold separately.
