LightScribe technology enables you to label your discs without paper, printers or mess. This technology built into a drive with this performance makes this Philips LightScribe drive an unbeatable deal!

This writer will read/write to virtually all formats of disc: DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW and + R Double Layer, and has a speed capability of 16x, the fastest available speed on the market at present. It will also write to CDR at a maximum speed of 48x and CDRW at 24x.

To use the LightScribe function, you simply burn your data, flip the disc over and burn a precise, silkscreen-like label directly onto your your LightScribe CD or DVD.

LightScribe can't peel off, get stuck, or cause disc damage the way paper labels can.
Use text, photos, and even pre-set designs for beautiful results.
No pens, no ink, no printer, and no sticky labels
