Anyone know where/what is a decent dvd disc printer. Are the themals any good, cause one for sale on bigpockets for £49

i have the EPSON R200
and i think it's deadly.
prints on cd's right to the edge
[depending on printable disc]

www.svp.co.uk sell them and replacement cartridges.
i just got 2 whole sets of cartridges [12 carts in total]
for about €60! svp sells prinablr dvd-r's for about 40c each also.

I have the Canon i865. Prints directly onto printable cd's/dvd's. Does a fantastic job. Also, it is a very good photo printer. It has 5 ink tanks and the tanks can be got on the interweb for about €8 each and they last a long time.

I just got one of those printers. Any tips on where to source carts ?

Not really. I just bought mine in PC World . for about €14.99 each. I was out of ink in 3 tanks. Can't really find them cheap on the web except for JES-Computer.de but I'd only order the cartridges as part of a bigger order to justify the delivery charge of about €28!

Just got a few links from another thread. http://www.pricestorm.com/index_home.asp and http://www.ink4europe.com/ stock the Canon i865 ink tanks. Both ship to Ireland. Pricestorm delivery is free. Not sure about ink4europe's shipping costs

Ive got lots of DVD's and was interested in getting a DVD printer a few months back but was put off by posts I saw on the forums in AfterDawn.com saying not to use them. A few posters were saying the printing process imbalances the weight of some discs and can seriously damage the player's lens. Is there any truth in this?

no.

i've never had that problem.

Think it was more a case of putting labels on them Shamrock, rather than printing directly
