Using LightScribe media
You can use your drive to label LightScribe CD or DVD media. To do so, put the LightScribe disc with
the label side down in the drive and use the Express Labeler program to print to the disc. LightScribe
prints in black on a solid colored background. The background color is imprinted on the disc at the
factory and cannot be altered by the drive. LightScribe discs can be overprinted multiple times to add
more information to the label. Overprinting does not erase the information that is already printed on the
disc.
