Burn a Disc Label Using LightScribe

LightScribe Direct Disc Labeling is a disc labeling technology that enables you to burn disc labels simply by flipping the disc over and putting them back in the same disc drive that burned your data. LightScribe technology combines the CD or DVD drive of your computer with specially coated discs to produce precise, silkscreen-quality labels.

Note: Using LightScribe, you can only print disc labels. You cannot print other types of labels using LightScribe technology.

To burn a disc label using LightScribe, do this:

1. Open Cyberlink LabelPrint and display the Print page.

Note: You must have selected LightScribe as your label type. See Select a Label Type.

1. Click . The LightScribe wizard opens.
2. Select a quality level:
   • Best (Recommended) – Provides the sharpest contrast with the longest burn time. Use Best level for important business transactions, gifts, and personal keepsakes.
   • Normal – Provides moderate burn time with good contrast. Use Normal level for professional labels.
   • Draft – Provides the fastest burn time with lowest contrast. Use Draft level for utility labels.
3. Click Preview to see how your LightScribe disc might appear after labeling.

Note: Text or images that extend beyond the editable region are cropped when printing. If your label is cropped, you may select a different layout style on the Edit Layout page. See Edit a Label’s Layout.

1. Click Next to begin burning your label. The label burn time varies with the amount of information contained on the label, the placement of the information on the label, the contrast level selected, the LightScribe disc used, and the drive.

Note: If the special ‘barcode’ in the middle of a LightScribe disc on the label (not data) side becomes dusty or dirty, the disc may not be detected as a LightScribe disc. If this happens, gently clean the barcode with a tissue, then try again.
