LightScribe Media Identification
The LightScribe system requires the use of LightScribe-enabled discs. LightScribe uses control features in the center/hub of the disc to identify media as LightScribe media. If your system does not seem to recognize the media as LightScribe media, take the following steps.
- Make sure the disc is a LightScribe-enabled disc. LightScribe media will have the LightScribe logo in the inner hub area. There will also be visible control features inside, and adjacent to, the coated label area.
- Make sure the disc is properly oriented in the drive. The label side, which contains a special coating, should be face down in the drive.
- Clean the center area (hub) of the disc. Use a lint-free cloth to wipe the hub area and remove any dirt or smudges that may be covering the control features.
- If these steps do not fix the problem, try another LightScribe disc.
