Hewlett-Packard is about to introduce a convenient way to label your recordable discs. Their new LightScribe technology uses the laser of a recordable drive to burn an image to the label side of the disc.

I having the same problems as you guys are having, i think the problems is in the disk themselves and not the drive you have to pick through you cake disks and do the printing of the image first and then the music or picture second that's why they don't recognize the problem. I had to visually scan through my cakedish of disks to see which one takes it'll tell me DRIVE DOES NOT RECOGNIZE DISK, etc. like someone said previously they made this item too fast and got it out on the market too fast and there are a lot of bugs. I am worse off than most of you because my came built into the computer (HP Media Center P.C.). So all those cd's and dvd's that i have i will put paper labels on them or magic marker.

I bought a HP PC about 3 years ago. it came with Lightscribe DVD+ writer. It work great for about 1 year, then, one sad day i made the mistake of hitting the wrong button on my PC and it put the PC back to shop settings wiping every personal bit of info. It also stuffed up my dvd drive and it has never been good since.
Lightscribe worked perfectly until this happened, now it has gotten worse and worse and will not play ANY dvd at all.
i have no idea how to fix this problem and with past experience the phone freakin' call centres can't bring myself to call HP and wait on the line for hours just to speak to morons who are only guessing what they are doing.
has anyone ecountered this problem/
can anyone (other than HP) help?
PLEASE...

I hope you're not talking about paper stick on labels. No faster way to kill a DVD. Printers that print directly on the disc are fine.
