Creating a LightScribe label after burning a disc with iTunes

iTunes works with Sonic Express Labeler to allow you to burn labels on a data CD or audio CD. The playlist you create in iTunes to burn a disc is automatically imported into Express Labeler so that this information is available for you to use on your LightScribe label. To use Express Labeler from iTunes, the data or music tracks in the playlist you are using must fit on a single CD.

1Click Start, All Programs, iTunes, and then click iTunes again.

2Burn a data or audio CD with iTunes. When the burning process is complete, click Yes on the Create LightScribe Label window.

3In the Step 1: Select Project area, make sure that Disc Label is selected.

4Select a label template by clicking Layout and choosing a layout. The various layouts show different amounts of playlist information. Some show only the playlist title and others show the playlist title and track names. You can edit playlist information by clicking Text to open the Edit Text window.

5Select a background, if desired, by clicking Background. Select one of the provided backgrounds or click More to find one of your own images to use as a background.

NOTE: LightScribe creates a grayscale (monochrome) image similar to a black and white photograph.

6When you are satisfied with the appearance of your label design, insert the LightScribe disc (label side down) into the disc drive tray and then click Print.

7From the Disc Label menu, select LightScribe 12cm Disc.

8Select a Contrast Level and then click OK to begin burning the label.

The estimated time to complete the label displays, along with a progress bar to show you the time remaining. You can continue to work on your PC while LightScribe is burning the label.

Setting Automatic Recording Options

When you first insert a blank CD into your DVD Writer or CD Writer drive, you may see options for the type of disc you insert.

NOTE: When you insert a blank DVD into your DVD Writer/CD Writer drive, an options window does not appear. You must open the program you want to use with your DVD, and then perform an action.
