I have seen that half of the writable CD/DVD's on sale at Wal-Mart and other places have gone to the "printable" type. Are you required to purchase a new printer specially made for CD's? If so, where do you purchase that at? I wander around the electronics section of these same department stores all the time and never see any type of printer for CD's. Someone please give me some insight to these new CD's!

My printer will print on cd's, you do need one that can. It comes with a special attachment that the cd fits into. I bought it at Staples, but you can get one anywhere.
Mine's the Epson Stylus PHOTO R300, but there are others. You just have to be sure to look for that freature when shopping for the printer.

you dont have to buy a new printer for labelling your cds.ask for a cd drive(burner) that has 'lightscribe' feature on it. LIGHTSCRIBE is a new technology that allows you to use a cd or dvd burner for printing labels on your blank cds.after u have copied files to the cds, go ahead and invert the cd in the drive and you can use the lightscribe feature to design and burn labels.

A Lite Scribe DVD drive, Lite Scribe discs, I have been very disappointed with it. The printing is dim and not colorful. I like printing a label and sticking it on better.
