Does this have Lightscribe technology? One photo shows the unit with the Lightcribe symbol, the other photo shows the unit without the Lightscribe.

I received today and there is NOT lightscribe on this. I am seeing the trend of the newer models are being stripped of Lightscribe capability for whatever reason, and I am not happy about it. In my photography business, anyone who purchases images on disk, get a custom etched disk with Lightscribe label - they love it. For me to discontinue this is unacceptable. Need to find a new burner with LS. ASAP.

From what I can tell, mine doesn't have a lightscribe logo nor have I tried to lightscribe anything with it. I can only assume its a stock photo of a similar driver.

Hi, Holly,Well, it's supposed to have the Lightscribe capacity. But I've never managed to burn more than have a disk label, so I wouldn't buy this counting on using that. Too bad, I miss having it. Working fine on my old LaCie DVD burner. If you manage to get it going I have a pack of 50 Lightscribe disks to sell-cheap.Also be aware it wants two USB ports.Cheryl

No, you can not light scribe on these discs. The discs will be labeled for lightscrbe. Example; Verbatim #96164.

You can buy external or internal lightscribes on Amazon. Good luck. I love mine. I make my own mixed CD s and design labels for them.

I have this same one and it does have one on the other side the picture is taken from right underneath the black writting that tells you what each light combination means.

No UL mark but it does have an ETL mark on the back of the device. A quick search will explain that for you. I have tested with no problems but not yet put the device into service so I cannot say about performance just yet. Old style devices do not like CFL bulbs on the line, so I hope these will fix that problem. Hope this helps, Barry.

The other response to this question could be correct - my experience with Lightscribe software has produced marginal image quality, not saying that the technology hasn't improved, but for the time (typically 10-20 minutes per disk) and effort (not to mention early retirement of the laser) there are inkjet printers that do a better job printing color onto DVD's with white sided media. If your heart is set on Lightscribe, ask the other respondent (who said it doesn't work) if they were aware that the disk has to be flipped over so that the laser (on the bottom of the drive) can burn the artwork on the "top" emulsion side of the disk.

1. The one I bought did come with a CD containing a piece of software to help the user to update the firmware. However, when I clicked on it, it said "No update available".I did go to the manufacturer's site but it said there was no update either.2. I have never used LightScribe so I don't know if this drive supports it.

Thank you for your interest in our products. This is not a Lightscribe compatible system.

Lightscribe software is free from the lightscribe website. This drive does not support lightscribe burning. Poor description.

I'm sorry I'm not a techie. What I do see it says here on the cd/dvd "slide-out door" is that it is compact disc rewriteable and DVD multi-recorder. Also says lightScribe on it. I purchased it 1.5yrs ago used through amazon.com and it is still running like a champ. I highly recommend this model. Hope my info was of use to you. Happy Shopping!

I think one of them has a light. Mine doesn't but it works great and we love it.

Yes it is, but the price is quite high. I only paid $50.00 from mine from Southfield computer. They have a brick and motor store in Mich, give them a call and see if they have any left.. The machine was built over 5 years ago but was NIB. Another consideration is that Lightscribe prints only in gray color. I get CD/DVD labels from Avery and print in multiple colors and put the label on the disk it plays quite well.

You must use lightscribe disk with lightscribe software. Order online hard to find in stores.

Yes,it has the light ,but no pre- marked tapes..just a blank tape that you mark.

So you have to purchase a Lightscribe software in order for it to work with this unit?
