Creating and burning LightScribe-labeled
discs
1 Start the LightScribe labeling software.
• Your labeling application may be part of your disc­
burning software, or it may be a stand-alone
application.
2 Choose the appropriate LightScribe setting(s) for your
design.
• Most LightScribe-enabled labeling applications
require you to select the "LightScribe" option before
designing your label.
3 Create your label design.
• You can choose to create a label with text and/or
graphics, and you can choose the area of the disc in
which your label will be inscribed — from a simple
band of text ("title only") to a complete design that
covers the entire disc ("full label").
• Experiment with text, fonts, ready-made
backgrounds, and your own photos and graphics to
design the label that best suits your style. (For ideas
and advice, visit www.Iightscribe.com/labeltips)
4 When your design is ready, insert a blank LightScribe
disc into the drive label side down.
• Before you can preview or print your design, the
labeling application checks to see whether there's a
LightScribe disc inserted correctly in the drive; if there
is no disc, or if your disc is not inserted with the
LightScribe labeling side down, the software will
send an error message.
5 Select the Preview option to see how your design will
look as a LightScribe label.
• Previewing your design lets you determine whether
the design elements are placed where you want
them, and it shows you what the grayscale design
will look like on disc.
