Using LightScribe Technology

(Select models only)

What is LightScribe?

LightScribe is an innovative technology that uses a special disc drive, special media (LightScribe-writable CDs or DVDs), and label-making software to burn labels directly onto the disc. A LightScribe-enabled CD or DVD drive uses the optical laser in the drive to burn a label onto a thin dye coating on the label side of the disc. There is no ink to smear or paper to curl, and there are no adhesives to loosen.

LightScribe requirements

Burning a label with LightScribe requires three things:

￿A LightScribe-enabled optical disc drive (select models only), identified by the LightScribe logo

￿Labeling software that supports LightScribe

￿A writable LightScribe disc (sold separately)
