Most people do not print all that many disks and I have to say that I have been more than happy with the performance of my ink jet printer for the amount of disks that I do print. Still, a stand alone disk printer does have benefits for some people, not just backyard software piracy operations. For your money, I don’t think will find a cheaper disk printer anywhere. Dymo sure has come a long way from the days of their first label makers, which by the way were great (I still use them when I get the chance).
If you print a lot of disks and think that a Dymo DiskPainter might be up your alley then you will be happy to know that the retail price is quite reasonable. These babies should be selling for $279 a unit, which is a pretty good price for high performance disk printing.

I received one of these printers as a wedding present last month and used it to create beautiful video DVDs of the wedding, reception, and the honeymoon (no not that pervo).
The DVDs were a hit and a special way to say thank you to all the guests.

Does anyone know how long an ink cartridge lasts. Like how many discs can this print?

@Kenny: I get about 40-45 hub-printable dvds with one cartridge. I burnt up the first cartridge and was a little disappointed at the quality, it wasn’t as good as the sites suggested. Then with my second cartridge, the first dvd that came out looked amazing, virtually no banding, great color and saturation. Next cartridge, same thing, results were great. I just put my 4th cartridge in, and it’s like the first. My first dvd has lots of color banding, is greenish in the middle, the saturation is inconsistent. I’ll be sending an email to dymo about it, it works out to about $55 CAD a cartridge for me, and I can’t afford to just throw one out when I get a bad one, especially if it’s every other one.
If the cartridges were more consistent, I would recommend this printer to anyone.
Regards,
Aaron
Ps: get glossy discs if you can, they look amazing compared to matte.
