 Disappointed in Atlanta July 19, 2008
Daniel B. Baugess (Atlanta)
DO NOT buy these HP Lightscribe discs. They are unreliable. My PC recovery discs (2 different sets) have both failed.
For absolute top quality DVD+R media or CDs, buy Taiyo-Yuden. I believe that Amazon sells these, or others do too. They're slightly more expensive, but you will not have failures.
 Great Lightscribe DVD's May 23, 2007

The HP Lightscribe are as good as any on the market. I've had more success with this brand than any other. I've used lightscribe for some time now and will not go back to any other lable type DVD's.
For a darker burn there is no reason to burn twice. Go to [...]lightscribe[...] and download the ELCU program for lightscribe drives. This is a contrast inhancement program that will do the job for you. It does extend the time of a burn, but not as much as burning 2 times or more.
This program also has the ability to reset your contrast to the original state and uninstalls complete. I'm using XP Pro SP2, I've also used it on Media Center and Vista.
 Time consuming, but great results May 11, 2007

>>>Your first copy WILL NOT be as dark as you expected.<<<
If you're still shopping around > get the Verbatim spindle, as it seems to print much darker on your first try.
If you're stuck with the HP spindle > here is the trick: don't panic if your first copy doesn't look good. The disks have a little ring in the middle that tells the burner exactly where to start/resume burning > this means you can put THE SAME disk in the burner and re-print the image, thus resulting in a much darker print. If you have the time to tinker with it, burn it 2-3 or even 4 times for the results you're looking for.
Trust me > I had the same exact reaction at first, but I love working with lightscribe now.
Problem solved.
Reliable March 26, 2007

After burning hundreds of labels and videos, the HP LightScribe 16x DVD-R discs have proven to be reliable.
Yes, the label contrast is a bit light, but this is a known issue with all (current) LightScribe discs. The LightScribe website, as well as all the manuals that I have seen, suggest burning the label a second time for better contrast. Black appears as a dark gray after one burn, but looks much darker after a second pass.
 Below expectations January 12, 2007

The label burned with my lightscribe turned out to be far too light and blurry
