Disc Labeling with LightScribe
LightScribe (select models only) is a
direct disc-labeling technology
providing you a simple way to burn
precise, silk screen-quality labels. It
combines the CD or DVD drive of your HP Media
Center PC with specially coated discs (sold
separately) and enhanced disc-labeling software.
A LightScribe-enabled CD or DVD disc drive uses
the optical laser in the drive to record 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:
LightScribe-enabled DVD drive (select
■
models only)
4
Insert a recordable CD or DVD into the drive.
5
Click the Burn Image icon.
6
Click Done when recording is
complete.
LightScribe media is identified by the LightScribe
logo on the retail packaging and on the inner hub
area of the disc itself. Your HP Media Center PC
may come ready to work with many versions of
LightScribe media (select models only); however,
as new media versions are introduced you will
need to update the driver software for your
LightScribe-enabled CD or DVD drive. Get
driver updates from the HP Support Web site:
