Default Direct printing to DVD

Hi can anyone help me with this. Do all printers print to DVD and all you need is a dvd/cd carriage/holder.
TIA

Desmond.

No, definitely not all.

and all you need is a dvd/cd carriage/holder.


You should be able to tell by product specifications and reviews.

Or you can ask about a particular product here or on some other
forum.

Any printer of course prints. That is to say, what you put on the
back of a printed image to adhere to a DVD is your business. Bear in
the mind a substrate dye, just below the top of optical media, is
where the writing occurs;- For instance, on budget discs it may be
easier to mistake a top from bottom, and no less easily irretrievably
damage the dye substrate. (Industry distributed discs use hardier
metals to impress media in formats not given to consumer grade
burner/printing methods.)

Some optical media dyes, however, take an approach, being already
equipped sorts serving for a liquid-paper surface, effectively for
matching to commonly available ink cartridges once inserted into a
printer so equipped for that purpose;- whereas another approach, again
with specialty optical media, is a portion of the media disc is
reserved for reaction to the burner's laser, again in specialty
burners serving post hoc for a printer stage, to imprint their own
form of categorization.

As is the case with optical media, there are means to know from
specialty sites how to get disc codes off the disc to identify what
factories discs are processed. Reviews are then provided from tests
to substantiate longevity and error factoring. Nice to know as discs
within the same batch processing may randomly show under a wide
variety of brandnames and price ranges.
