4.0 out of 5 stars Folks, learn how to use it before you criticize, September 8, 2008

Okay, first, I did not purchase this with any illusions that it would print perfectly on all blank CD/DVD media.
I also did not expect it to print full disc graphics, multiple colors, or auto-feed a stack of blanks.
You need to know that certain blanks will not print at all or poorly.
The blanks to avoid using with this printer are those with nearly perfectly smooth glossy surfaces, or those with lots of printing on their surface.
An example of a glossy blank to avoid is the excellent quality (Taiyo-Yuden manufactured) Maxell CD-R PRO with the shiny gold surface with multiple black lines. These blanks will not print at all.
The blanks that work best are those with a slightly textured unpainted surface or those that have no printing or texture at all.
The best of all would by the Taiyo-Yuden blanks that have completely plain tops, which will print all four areas perfectly edge to edge.
Also, please keep in mind here that this is intended to put information on blanks, NOT make them look pretty, and it does that extremely well, without requiring crappy printable blanks that are expensive, and can smear, fade, or peel.
Also, this works considerably better than the Casio disk printers that neither automatically rotate, nor print to four areas.
The best use for this is for burned music CDs or DVDs that you want track-by-track information for.
In fact, my only real complaint with this is that it will not export CD-Text information directly into the label composer program.
You must enter all information manually, but it can fit all track information quite nicely, if you just take a moment to use the right font instead of griping about microscopic fonts that should not be used at all.
Once you have the right blanks (the T-Ys I recommended are easily the best), you will be amazed at how clear, attractive, and durable the printing is.
Oh, and Sharpies look like garbage; you cannot fit much on the surface, and they can damage the blank itself.
Until they come out with full color capable Lightscribe(TM) technology with blanks that cost no more than regular media, this is the best you can do for labeling.

4.0 out of 5 stars first time user of a disc printer, November 4, 2006

By	K. L. tengesdal (17mi from canada in central nd) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

this is my first disc printer and it was easy to set up and print. on clear disc, i would recommend trying different color ink ribbons, because black is hard to see on the small print.

1.0 out of 5 stars Another piece of junk, March 26, 2008

By	Gary Jennings "JenningsMusic" (Hesperia, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've owned two of these. The first one I got when they first came out and was labeled with the manufacturer's name. I had buggy problems with it but if I messed with it enough (unplugging it and reinstalling the driver etc), I could usually get it to work. After a year or so, it just wouldn't work anymore at all. I tried lots of remedies but nothing helped. I ended up purchasing another one because I really like the features and what it is supposed to do. It really is great when it works. The second one had the TEAC name and I thought maybe the bugs had been worked out. I've always liked TEAC equipment but this one was worse. I had the same problems and it quit working even sooner than the first one. I'm looking for something to replace it if anyone has any recommendations.
