Can you label a CD with these pens?

Not unless they have a papery like surface. Otherwise, it just wipes off. Regular sharpies would probably be better for that.
1809260
No. You need a regular felt tip for that purpose. The pens are excellent for writing...and no bleed through.

Depends on the CD some are too glassy textured and the pen just beads up some are a little rougher and allow the pen to stick. Personally would use fine sharpies not sharpie pens!

havnet tried but with as tight as the can fit in there I wouldn't think it would work out very well. I just label each disc with a fine point Sharpie if it was one that I burned myself. There also programs you can buy or get free to catalogue them on your computer.

A year ago, I researched the question of whether you can use a Sharpie marker on the back of CD-Rs, and I came up with two completely contradictory answers. The more frequent answer was 'No! You must never use a Sharpie on the back of a CD-R. Sharpies contain solvents, and those solvents may damage the very thin layer of plastic that lies between your markings and the data-layer of the CD-R. They make water-based markers specifically for writing on the backs of CD-Rs.' The less frequent answer (but this came from the headquarters of Memorex or somebody else quite authoritative) was 'Sure, we do it all the time! Never had a problem with it.' I can't tell you whom to believe. Sharpie does make an Ultra Fine Point marker, and you can safely write with that in the central region of the CD, where there is no silver and no data, but that solution may not be satisfactory to you. And there are the water-based markers, specifically for writing on CD-Rs, but I have not tried them. I wonder, how permanent could a water-based marker be? So, I was unable to find a definitive answer to your question. It's like the world at large: everybody's got an opinion, but nobody's got an answer. Good luck!

You can buy external or internal lightscribes on Amazon. Good luck. I love mine. I make my own mixed CD s and design labels for them.

They are a matte white but it does say "Sony" and "DVD-R" etc on the top surface so they probably won't work in cd printers.
1275519
Yes. You can work with them on the itunes screen just as if you had downloaded from a cd.

If these are the CDs with the white top, they are printable from a regular printer. I write on them with magic markers because my printer is older and I was afraid they'd get scratched or smear the artwork.

While they are "stickers" they are't the cheap paper type that you might have seen in the past for labeling CDs. These are an adhesive film that is thinner and sticks more firmly to the disc. If you're careful when applying them (using a CD case as a guide, or a "stomper" type sticker applicator) they will align well and usually avoid getting air bubbles under the sticker that could make it look unprofessional and possibly interfere with playback. If you do get a bubble or two it can often be smoothed out to the side using a credit card or similar.

You have to make sure the cd's with the label "digital audio" or going to have truoble

Any brand will work with these however, the extra thickness to the CD may cause jamming in some readers. So pick a decent quality that will stick well and not lift on the edges.

Several years ago I spoke with someone at one of the CDR companies. I asked if I needed to use a special CD marker to write on the CD's. I was told, "No" and that a Sharpie was the way to go and to not let the ink "pool" on the CD.

Yes, you can write in the lids with a Sharpie. I write on a piece of masking tape with a sharpie so I can change it.

You can write directly on the discs. I use a black permanent marker to write titles on my discs.

I don't believe it prints directly onto CD's but will do nice CD labels that you can stick on the CD

I didn't purchase these for sticking on actual CD's, but to accompany my order for black cd cases. I actually intend to write on them.

Yes you can but do not use the small 3/4" x 2" address labels. They do not scan. You must use the larger multipurpose labels.

No, I'm afraid they don't. You could perhaps put a different colored label over it but I'm not sure how well it would stick to the plastic. (Other than that issue for you, I swear by these. I'm a teacher with a ton of files and it's so helpful to see at a glance what is inside. My husband (not a teacher), love them, too.
