Manufacturer description
The Casio CW-100 Disc Title Printer uses direct thermal printing technology. The CW-100 can print titles on up to 40 discs in one of 5 different colors (red, blue, green, silver or black). The CW-100 will not damage your important discs. Unlike other ink systems, thermal prints dry instantly, and the final print will not peel off. Use any font on your system to create custom disc titles. 300 DPI printing provides sharp, professional results. The CW-100 also provides a unique auto-turn function to print on upper and lower areas of your discs in one simple operation. Create your own titles-print directly onto CD's. Design a label simply by selecting options that suit the CD type and your needs. Import your own graphics (BMP or JPEG) onto the CD's and use your own fonts that are installed on your computer. An on-screen preview image shows exactly what the label will look like. An assistant feature provides help when you need it. Add up to 6 lines per input field.

Nice little gadgetby vantheman28 - June 28, 2005
Pros: Good quality print
Cons: Software a little cumbersome
Review: My first impression out of the box was this is a sweet looking little gadget. The software was not that intuitive but once I got the hang of it, it was smooth sailing. I like the fact that it acts like a real CD drive. I don't have to manually open the unit. There is an eject button. The CD's pop in and out of the unit with ease. The print quality is excellent especially on clean (no label) thermal media. I wouldn't recommend branded CD's or DVD's for this unit. I scratched and rubbed the print with no luck in removing any ink. This is a good thing. Overall, I was very impressed with this unit. Good job Casio.
