What is LightScribe?

 17 June, 2009

Bookmark and Share


LightScribe is an innovative technology that uses a special disc drive, special media, and label-making software to burn labels directly onto CDs and DVDs.

Because the labels are laser-etched—not printed—there's no ink, no smudging, and no peeling.

Your labels can be whatever you want them to be. Create one-of-a-kind designs with your own photos, text, and artwork using your label-making software. Or choose from the many free backgrounds the software provides. You may also visit LightScribe's Design Center for free downloadable designs.

Once you create your design, be sure to follow these three steps:

- Burn your data (music, photos, video, etc.) in the LightScribe drive.
- When your data burning is complete, open the drive and flip the disc over.
- Burn your LightScribe label. Remember, the same drive that burns your data burns your label, too.

LightScribe was conceived by HP engineer Daryl Anderson and brought to market through the joint design efforts of HP's imaging and optical storage divisions in 2004.

 

What you need....

 

You will need 3 things to use LightScribe to label discs:

  1. A LightScribe enabled disc burner

  2. LightScribe media (currently in CD-R, DVD+R, DVD-R)

  3. Software for creating disc labels (usually comes with the LS enabled burner, but you can also download a free program from LightScribe.com called SureThing 4SE). The latest versions of disc burning software from Nero, Roxio, and others, have LightScribe capabilities.
