Conclusions
Despite all the hype, we can see that there is
at least one major disadvantage with this new technology...speed. While it can
print some professional-looking labels, its burn time is extremely slow and
best suited for those who don't plan on using the feature excessively. The
other thing to keep in mind here is that it does require special media which
is a bit expensive at this time. However, it's the cool factor that has many
interested. The ability to print right from your drive without the recurring
costs of ink cartridges is certainly something to get excited about.
Will there be speed increases in next generation LightScribe drives?
Will they support color printing? We'll have to wait and see how
this will improve over time.
