I just bought a 50 spindle of these from Ebay and printed off my first disc. AMAZING!!! The print surface is shiny and looks like a professionally made dvd...even better than many I've seen. These discs are hands down the best inkjet printable disc on the market. They make regular Ty's, Verbs, Maxell, etc look like crap! For anyone whose held off on getting these...DO IT! I have the Epson R200 and it printed on these perfectly. I mean it's like comparing a turd to ice cream. Haven't tried the fingerprint/smear/water test yet...paid .70 a disc and wanna wait til it dries completely. I'll let you guys know.

fettfan, we are all WELL aware of how good Taiyo Yuden media is. just do a simply forum search and you will see.BTW i would steer clear of buying media off e-bay being theres a good chance you can get fakes. you're better of getting them from either

http://www.supermediastore.com

http://meritline.com

or

http://rima.com

make sure the TYs you bought code out as true TYs by running them though DVD Identifier

We shall go to the end,we shall fight in France,we shall fight on the seas and oceans,we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air,we shall defend our Island,whatever the cost may be,we shall fight on the beaches,we shall fight on the landing grounds,we shall fight in the fields and in the streets,we shall fight in the hills;we shall never surrender

I would not trust the media id code as this is easily faked.I would rather check the following,that's the best way to know if your media is genuine TY or not.


Quote:
Taiyo Yuden rated speed & format/ media ID coding / inner hub reading

4x DVD-R = TYG01 / GD00xxxx
8x DVD-R = TYG02 / GG00xxxx
16x DVD-R = TYG03 / GH00xxxx

4x DVD+R = YUDEN000T01 / i don't know cuz i don't have any :P
8x DVD+R = YUDEN000T02 / TG00xxxx
16x DVD+R = YUDEN000T03 / TH00xxxx
P.S:And as mentioned by MichaelP1,never buy TY medias on ebay,you'll most probably end up with fake ones.Better buy from trusted places like mentioned above.


Vincent.

I'll admit TY is some of the best media out there. Silver shiny (what you have) is nice but I prefer to buy the silver matte discs.
