I just checked Kodak website and this product doesn't mention such a feature. I think only Lightscribe can draw on the dvd/cds. This only comes on the DVD/CD writers.

SOURCE: I have a HP Printer

I'm confused.. Are you trying to print to a CD/DVD Drive? Try the print job again, and choose the C5500 as the print device.. Seems that there may be a problem with the print device set-up , and you may have to delete the printer, and reinstall it.

If the printer is designed to print a label on a CD / DVD. then you will have to use the programs provided to accomplish this, as it requires formatting parameters be sent along with the print request. I.E. You can not cut and paste directly to a CD / DVD printer..

SOURCE: Printer will not print DVD

that error is a Jam related error, check for paper jam, carriage jam then check that you have no cartridge problems. If you are using a UPS, try to plug the unit directly to the wall socket. hope that helps

SOURCE: When I try to print

Firstly, install the latest drivers for your printer. Which can be found on the manufactures website under the downloads/support section. Choose the version of Windows you are running, for the correct driver.

Next point is to confirm CD/DVD printing on this model with the aid of the user manual. It is possible that the ink cartridges that are currently installed in your printer are the reason why it is not able to print on CD/DVD disks. Certain ink cartridges are required to print on differnet mediums.

You may have grounds to claim warranty support, it may be of benifit to contact the store of purchase.

Take care!

Xp-800 cd/dvd printing
The tray is for the DVD or CD itself, not for a label. The printer prints directly on the CD or DVD, you must use ink jet compatible blank disks, the white ones with no printing. You don't need a tray to print the label.

You can't print directly to a CD or DVD. You need to print on a CD or DVD labels and you can find it on a computer store like Comp USA or Best Buy for example.

HP C5580 print settings
Hey! I found this in a review site (can't remember)

"If you use Nero 7 Essentials to print CD/DVD labels, make sure you print just the page for the disc, and under print setup make sure you have CD/DVD 120mm under size and CD/DVD tray from source, then under Preferences set your calibration to -0.185" horizontal, -0.182" vertical, and you'll be golden."

I hope it helps!!

CANT PRINT LABEL ON CD
I have tried to print cd labels on two separate HP C5280 printers, with no luck. Printer keeps giving me an error message, cd/dvd tray is open. Printer just doesn't recognize the cd holder. I have uninstalled and installed the HP driver, spoke to the tech support, followed their instructions on chat, phone and you-tube, wasted so many labels, papers and the ink, complained to HP, all waste of time, money and energy. Please don't buy this product.
