Hi friends, this video tutorial will present LightScribe technology, this is an interesting option that we have some time available and with which we can print LightScribe disks compatible with monochrome shades.
To use LightScribe 3 things we need:
1. DVD writer unit compatible with LightScribe technology, ie it must write on the tray "LightScribe".
2. Special disks, LightScribe compatible, must also write "LightScribe" on them.
3. Special software “LightScribe System Software (LSS)”Which controls the printing process, available for download on the site LightScribe
Optionally, you can use other software helpful, I used in this tutorial TEMPLATE LightScribe Labeler for easy printing based on ready made themes, themes can be changed easily, with this software you can easily additionally introduce those themes: images, text, graphics.
It is extremely easy for any user, no need to have experience in graphics to print a LightScribe drive.
How does this technology called LightScribe so suggestive?
The disc is normal, the difference consists of a reactive layer, which is exposed to laser light changes color 740 nm, the process is similar to that used in paper, fax or metro cards, of course can not compare with LightScribe card underground, but at the base, these two methods are similar lettering.
LightScribe disks found in many shades, I in this video tutorial I used a light brown color on the market you can find and disks red, green, blue, etc, each disk will choose according to the theme color printing project that- it will address.
Do not you think that you can print LightScribe color, yet this technology can print only in monochrome, in this tutorial we use a LightScribe DVD a light brown color, the final image is made up of many shades of brown, some dark, others open, all these form an image with a vintage look, like it would be a photo of them 19 beginning of the century.
Perhaps among you are passionate about photography and I am sure they will be delighted with patina effect that it has printed a LightScribe drive.
This issue related to printing on disks will continue with other tutorials we print images using LightScribe original movie DVDs or games, we do tutorials and disks in the printer for printing on a color original disk layout, we make and tutorials covers to the printer for printing.
VERY IMPORTANT!
In this video tutorial, we missed something important, drive back to the other side must be able to drive with LightScribe print basically after burn data (music, games, photos, etc.) disk must be returned to the other side, opposite to what are common.
Attention!
After printing with LightScribe drives have to be very careful with store it for these disks are very sensitive to light, it is advisable to stay away from sunlight, are best stored in paper envelopes or better in bags Special disks.
I wish you pleasant viewing.
About Cristian Cismaru
Interesting printing system, but it does not compare with the classic one with ink. Printed photography has a rather poor quality. Because of this this procedure has not been imposed. Maybe if it will evolve…
@sorin: That is, we must admit that the picture is quite poor, though I think I have something to say in the future this technology.
Yet for some home-made, is pretty good, certainly can and will show better and that on the occasion of future tutorials.
Cristi You're a wonderful family to live and be healthy. As picture really disappointing but as you said for a penny really worth it, otherwise all good!
@blackarow: Folks, I don't want to be mean, but stop complaining about quality !!! I see the same phenomenon as in the tutorial with GIMP… everyone wants photoshop yes they don't even know what to do with it or I don't even know how much a photoshop license costs… you will say that there are torrents… yes that's right, if you want to make money with photoshop on torrents you won't be able to, if you want to win you have to make money, you have to be legal, you can never be a web designer with photoshop on torrents ever !! you sell your work, things change and you have to be legal !! So with Lightscribe, it's something like Cristi Home made adik said made there in your nest, with a PC for little money, a CD of 25 thousand, you really can't ask for more for what is offered for now !! ! If you want to be profi comparative, my father is profi tools and it will work out better, if you want your CD to come out like in studios, then my father buys special equipment for something like that !!! You can't build a block with just a wheelbarrow and a shovel and some bags of cement !! So here, the pretentious ones to buy high-performance utilities, this is a Home made !!! made at home in your house with the money of the ordinary man who we all know what a Romanian budget has… so, familiar with the idea !!!
Congratulations Cristi for the tutorial, at the moment I can't afford a DVD-RW with Lightscribe but who knows… in the future the technique is welcome !!
Adrian, I said almost the same thing, but with much fewer words, but in no case did I "complain".
How long is a DVD of this… ??? 100-200lei ??? Do they have a cartridge ?? is it finished ??? can they be replaced ??? :)
@Paul: You watched the tutorial up the hill and further down the valley… you only looked at the title and that's it !!! Play the tutorial to see how much it cost !!! And you don't need a cartridge because you don't burn it with the printer, but with DVD-RW in case it supports Lightscribe… simply the CD on the unwritable side has a photosensitive film, and as we all know that DVD-RW has in it a laser with which he writes the CDs, that laser heats that film and it changes its color according to the temperatures that the laser beam in the DVD-RW has !!! These instructions to change the temperature of that laser beam or increase it, of course, receive them from the computer !!
@Adrian: Apropos Cristi CD is cream color
Adrian Bravo, good point, these tutorials help us survive in the virtual world with cost saving and it's commendable work aici.Eu boys appreciate the enormous personal gimp tutorials about precisely why they do not allow me to use adobe and not that I would not find torrents but because GIMP is ideal for the home user, which I cover nevoile.E shame that some do not appreciate the work of these people, it's not really easy way to share a site with such a profile and be seen of their materials that put passion in what fac.Cu well.
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I see many complain of Qualitative image. I do not agree. I burned a lot of DVDs with this technology and I can say that you can have a much better quality than what was presented in videotutorial.Esential DVDs is to use the best quality and introduced another software than this. I am sure you have other software and it would be good to learn the secrets of the world k something more advanced technology (in my opinion). YOU ARE THE BEST!! Good health and we always new tutorials as interesting as the ones before. ! BAFTA!
hi cristi What fploseshti xp hone edition or professional and that TZI seems best?
@Adrian: If I'm good at making me fashion designer colors (NOT UNDERSTAND GAY), unfortunately I did not mind artistic, artistic spirit and eye for color must have from birth, I have no such luck.
Respect the artists for the work that they do, I find it impossible to sing an instrument or paint.
Until yesterday I did not know what he looks like or LILA SICLAM color.
I am a layman in tile design and recognize this, yet I never found sensitive side.
Respect for designers.
Respect for musicians and musicologists.
Respect for poets and writers.
@COSTY: I said in the tutorial that it is possible that the DVD I used to not be of the best quality, I used MEMOREX, we will definitely return and other related tutorials LightScribe, and until then I will try to make a test as compared with LightScribe DVDs from different manufacturers.
@par: I use Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Home is about as good if single core, multi core if you have to think of Windows XP Pro, because it has support for multi core processors.
However, there are other differences can not discuss this on the comments section, we'll probably make a tutorial-test comparison between the Windows operating systems.
very interesting tutorial, I really have a drive that way and did not know what is this lyghtscribe, I think I'll pass on this Tecnologie. mersy for tutorial.continuati all so do a great job and not useful new ancepatorilor that numai.vorba anvatati nation not born, always have something to anvatat.multumim existed.
Hello! Videotutorial Thank you for this, but especially thank you for the work you submit for making these videotutoriale so useful for all lumea.Eu personally have learned a lot from these videotutoriale honestly say that I have been very useful and watch each new videotutorial you do and whose link you receive by email every time. I used the search engine isoHunt every time I needed to download a torrent ever. You guys are awesome.
THANK YOU! way: Cristi have a family you live frumosa.Sa
Gentlemen,
I use this technology when it appeared. After many attempts (and discs thrown away) I got to make some CDs
very nice. Mr. Christ presented to you very well everything you have to do, but it is not enough. You also have to contribute with your imagination, artistic sense (if it is…) and a lot of patience.
I want to share some of my experience. Namely:
1. If you want to print a photo (how did Dl.Cristi) that turn black and white photo.
LightScribe Control Panel 2.Din increase the contrast (time increases)
3.Folositi bold fonts give them white and black line bounding the out. The color white is actually the color of the CD.
4. Search for torrents and get the "Shure Thing" software is the best. I work with him.
5.Cautati background as dark (even black) and write on it with white font.
6.Ar be better to use this technology for text only. I have a collection of symphonic music and jazz. I marked with LightScribe titles compzitori, conductors, orchestras
Trbuse absolutely everything to get rid of that Crion (marker)
7. It takes a little more, depending on how busy is the image but
Lose toner consumption or books that are hellish expensive.
8.CD LightScribe sites I found (on net) somewhere in Cluj ten or twelve lions 50 boxes each piece in ten different colors
Repeat: With patience and imagination you will get wonderful results.
PS. Mr. Cristi have an angel baby! You live and you only joy of her ..!
=)) And i have a lg lightscribe and I had no idea what I was interested in do not give any
@Nicu Dumitrescu: Thank you on behalf of all the ideas, I think we take in the next tutorial about LightScribe.
We want out of this method all you can, to go to the limit LightScribe technology.
This tutorial is an introduction to a simple demonstration for people rush in these tutorials we get deeper into the details, I am glad that there is an interest for LightScribe.
Congratulations you daddy!!!!
Nice tutorial!
Thanks!!
Very nice… We have been looking for a way to print an image on a CD for a long time… And here is someone who finally thought… Good job
Very good tutorial cristi do with the printer and the print I'm interested to see how it's done, thanks!
Ovidiu, I do with installing a printer from 0, then we provide some advice on reducing the cost of maintenance of printers, how to load cartridges make inexpensive, so you do not have to buy original cartridges are very expensive, many or cartridges are more expensive than the printer.
LIGHT SCRIBE DISCS BURN MUCH BETTER WITH THE SOFTWARE "ACOUSTICS CD-DVD LABEL MAKER" because you have more contrast setting options, the darker you make it on the monitor, the better.
PS That's how it turned out for me the first time I did light scribe. Now I have gained experience… 😀
Maybe put some pictures to convince
hello cristi, the tutorial is very loud, I didn't know that something like that could be done… congratulations for the tutorial
how can I make more xp installation I can choose which I
Cristy great tutorial thank you for everything you do for your daughter noi.si congratulations and a sweetheart of a beautiful child, give her health and her god to you and wife you can grow. luck and thousands of thanks .
I have a TEAC DVD Writer from 2005. It's the only computer part I haven't changed so far. I looked at him to see if he wrote LightScribe and instead I saw that he wrote: "No LightScribe, but as long as you're down here, please dust me…" :)). Beautiful technology. If I am going to take any optical writing unit in the near future, I will be interested in having this function.
I have a question if anyone can help me out there right image ba ba cd in half a quarter and I tried lightscribe in nero and one on lightscribe.com
Hi, I have a question Cristi. I bought a month ago and have installed an HP leptop and this program among many altele.M looked at cd-player and nothing in there LightScribe.Atata leptopu long as the factory has installed this program supports this format CD Playeru can burn images on it? Thanks in advance!
I would also like to know if it is necessary nero… I downloaded lightscribe..I installed it..but when I put the cd to burn it..imi sp k can't find anything: | ..why is it..no are the CDs good or is it another problem?
Thanks Cristi it's good, it's not a simple DVD… I tried it too and it worked… it's good…
If you want to have high contrast 2 disc burn times. After the first lap close the application save the project, open the saved project and burn again. Disadvantage: it takes minutes 40 2 the session. And another thing: every picture I increase the light and contrast after you do black and white. As application we only use nero for total freedom of editing. I made dozens of disks so believe me were good.
I came back with a picture that shows the difference between a layer and two. I used the cheapest no name discs 1,2 lei. The contrast is greater Verbatim discs. And I noticed something: it's better to burn your images SIM ago to write information to disk.
