Wow, check this out. DYMO’s DiscPainter can help you create professional quality CD covers so you can keep working from home like me. :p

The DYMO DiscPainter creates excellent artwork for your CD’s and DVD’s, and it does it in a speedy fashion, but the real downfall of this device is the cost of operation. The device itself costs $280. The ink cartridges cost $39 a piece, which puts the the cost per disc at $0.39 for the cost of ink alone. You also have to factor in the cost of the CD’s, DVD’s, or miniDisc’s. DYMO recommends using waterproof glossy or matte finish CD-R’s, which can cost about $0.50 a pop. The manufacturer claims a lifespan of the DiscPainter at 2,000 uses. So when you do the math, you are looking at roughly $1.00 per disc (printer, CD/DVD’s, ink).

    One has to remember when factoring cost: you get what you pay for. Using old document printers using balky feed trays and smudgy results may be cheaper initially but it will turn out to be more expensive if you factor in the value of your time. Those half measures are not professional choices when it comes to labeling discs. If you need or want professional looking disc labels then you have to get the right tools. The DiscPainter is the right tool for those people who's time is too valuable to waste.
