Printer for labels??

Afterlife · #1 17-06-2003, 21:23

Hi there, Im considering buying a cheap printer and some labels so I can make labels for games I backup so its not just a shiny or white surface.

Anyways does anyone know of a good printer to do this job effectivly? I want the labels to come out well and look good.

The printer I was looking at was the Canon i320. I dont want to spend a lot as this (and school) will probably be all that I use it for.

Thanks!!

You can get a special printer for the white inkjet printable discs but you would be looking at spending probably $300-$400. For the paper labels any reasonably good photot quality printer will work. I use a HP PSC 2210. It is one of the All in One jobs. When I make a backup game I just scan in the image of the original then use photoshop to crop it to the size I need. 300DPI is more than enough to get a good image. I have had friends who didn't know any better think that my backups where the originals.

Depending on where he is, there are now CD printers for as little as $200 for an all-in-one!

Just saw a review of an Epson that was that cheap!

But... any photo-quality printer will do the trick for you, just get matte labels.
