Creating Data, Audio, and Video Discs on your PC

Using adhesive disc labels

WARNING: When labeling your CDs and DVDs, do not use
sticky labels. They can cause the disc to play erratically.
Instead, write on the disc with a felt-tip pen to label it.
Or, you can create a LightScribe label for your disc if you have
a LightScribe optical drive and you use LightScribe media
discs. Refer to "Disc Labeling with LightScribe" on page 9.

Compatibility Information

An important feature of a DVD Writer/CD Writer drive is its high level of
compatibility with other optical drives and CD and DVD players:
• The CDs that you create play in most home and car stereos and in most
computer DVD-ROM and CD-ROM drives.
• The DVDs that you create are compatible with some DVD video players and
with most computer DVD-ROM drives.
• CD-R discs are more compatible with home and car stereos than CD-RW
discs are.
Your DVD Writer/CD Writer drive is able to read from and record to almost every
type of optical disc. Writing speed rates for the DVD Writer/CD Writer drive are
fast, allowing quick recording times.
NOTE: CD-R discs are more compatible with home and car stereos than CD-RW
discs.
