Sticky CD labels are problematic on many levels. Now manufacturers are coming out with inkjet printers that print directly onto CDs. Here is how you can find an inkjet printer that prints on CDs.

Inkjet CD printing is based on the same inkjet printing technology that made low cost monochrome and color printing possible for the home PC market. These CD printers use special ink cartridges to print on the surface of inkjet printable media. Cartridges are available for single color, as well as full 4 color CD printing.

It’s generally cheaper to buy printable inkjet media than to buy both media and labels. While the printer might represent an additional expense, you need a printer to print labels anyway, a media-capable printer actually costs about the same as a better inkjet printer.
