A guide to CD labelling

Whilst labelling disks may sometimes seem like a laborious process, it is nonetheless a very important one. When one has too many disks that aren’t labelled, it can be difficult, if not impossible, to sort through them and to find the needed information. Here is a brief guide on the different ways in which to efficiently label CDs for personal organsation and use.

Write on the CD itself carefully

Why label CDs? Whether you are burning music to a compact disc (CD) or you are simply backing up important information, labelling CDs from the moment that they are made is a smart idea that saves time and energy in the long run.
Use sharpies on CDs The first way in which to consider labelling a disk is to directly print on CDs. It is important to remember which type of writing utensil is being used. Sharpies are advised for permanence and safety. Other markers or pens can be ineffective. They can also be temporary, or even damage the CD itself.

Print a label for the CDs

Another efficient way in which to organise CDs is to create labels or to make labels for the disks.
Benefits of investing in a CD labeller Purchasing a label kit is not overly costly, and it can be very useful over time. Printing label kits enable owners to print a clear subtitle on a small piece of sticky paper from the machine or inkjet printer itself. These stickers can then be simply placed on the CD itself for identification.

Allow drive to label the CD

Some computer drives and printers, such as certain HP inkjet printers, even have capabilities to label the CD immediately after music or information is stored.
Simplicity of drive Designed Like the HP Lightscribe, some computer technologies use high-intensity laser light for design. These laser lights can create flashy labels for CDs without hassle, and are both fun and easy to use with basic instructions.

Print on the CD directly

Lastly, a fourth option to label and organise disks is to print right on the disc itself without using any paper or markers.
Advantages of disc printers These “disc printer” brands, such as Primera and Epson, allow for immediate media organisation by using inkjet printers for labelling purposes. They prevent burning multiple CDs from getting mixed up and create a clear, smooth finish for the label. Keep CDs organised in the future Once one has successfully organised and labelled CDs, it becomes a much easier process to find and use them effectively. Once labelled, remember to keep all CDs in an organised compartment to make the search procedure even easier.
