Introduction
LightScribe Direct Disc Labeling is a technology that offers consumers
and businesses a simple, easy way to burn professional,
silkscreen-quality
labels on their CDs and DVDs. Using the same laser that burns data in
their LightScribe enabled optical drives, customers burn their data on
the
data side of the CD or DVD, flip the disc over, reinsert it into the
drive and
burn a precise, iridescent label.
LightScribe Direct Disc Labeling Technology Requires 3
Elements
- LightScribe-Enabled Optical Disc Drive
– Drives such as
the LaCie d2 DVD±RW Drive with LightScribe enable validation
of media
types, print speed and intensity (Normal or High Quality) of the label
on LightScribe-compatible media.
- LightScribe-Compatible Media
–
A micro-thin, low-cost
coating of a highly specialized material on the label side of
compatible media absorbs laser light, triggering an image-producing
chemical reaction. You can easily identify LightScribe-compatible media
through the LightScribe logo, found on media packaging and in the inner
hub of every disc.
- LightScribe-Supported Software Applications
– Licensed
software applications, such as LaCie LightScribe Labeler for Mac OS X,
Roxio Express Labeler for Windows, and LaCie LightScribe Labeler for
Linux, tap lower-level software system services to connect the user
experience to the firmware controls, delivering the user’s
desired
label to the imaging system.
LaCie Offers LightScribe Software For Mac, Windows &
Linux
LaCie is the first company to offer an all-in-one data writing and
LightScribe printing solution for each operating system
