I have been using Lightscribe to Identify my CD. Then HP stopped
support
of that technique. Then some one developed printable CD. However in my
search for a new printer, none seems to handle printable CD. Has that
technology been thrown on to the scrap heap also?

If so are there any other professional ways to ID CD? (magic marker
is not
acceptable.)

This may help :-

Looking at boxes or Newegg etc you have to hunt for the info a bit, but my
old Canon ip4000 died and I bought another Canon MG5420, Multifunction,
did not see CD in the list of features, but when I got it home was so so
happy and surprised to see the feature was there. I have a couple 100
printables CD/DVD's.

I bought this software http://acoustica.com/cd-label-maker/ years ago and
I notice it says supports lightscribe. Also see this link of theirs as
well as the avforums link.

I wonder is this printing technique on CD durable? Isn't the text easily
wiped off with wet or greasy fingers?




It is durable. I have several CD's I printed pictures and names in
color and they have survived 6 or 8 years in my shop and truck. They
do not smudge. You have to use "printable" cd blanks.
