Lightscribe has a nice look but if you select the high quality setting (if you don’t the shading is very light) it takes about 20-30 minutes to print one disc. I still offer it as the default but I also have an Epson Stylus R260 to print full color (5760 x 1440 optimized dpi ) as an upgrade option. The print time goes from 30 minutes to 30 seconds and is a world apart form the gray shades of lightscribe. The Epson printer was $75 ish from Sams but they are available at B&H Photo and similar suppliers.
I had an I/O Magic Lightscribe drive that worked flawlessly for just over a year but has since stopped working. I will replace it since I like the presentation.
