burn a label onto a thin dye coating on the label side of the disc. There is no ink to
smear or paper to curl, and there are no adhesives to loosen.
LightScribe media is identified by the LightScribe logo on the retail packaging and
on the inner hub area of the disc itself. Your PC comes ready to work with many
versions of LightScribe media; however, as new media versions are introduced you
will need to update the driver software for your LightScribe-enabled CD or DVD
drive. Get driver updates from the HP Support Web site.
