I have seen some printers on the internet that are able to print onto printable dvds. I looked at label-flash but the disk are hugely expensive. I was just hoping that someone could recomend me to a printer to get, that prints with good quality but isnt too expensive.

Thanks in advance

Epson Stylus Photo R230 (or similar, depending on where you are in the world).

Learn how to use the search function of the board this has been discussed many times before and nothing has changed in any signifcant way since the last one.

I purchased the epson R220 a month ago when best buy had it for 49 dollars which was the lowest price I had seen and it works great. I use it only for dvds printing and when I get close to running out of ink I will buy the refills since epson ink cost to much.

If you live outside the US, I would see if you can still find a canon ip3000 or ip4000. They are very impresive printers and are the last of the non chipped printers. If you are in the US your only choice is epson. I just got an epson r300 (refurbished) for 50$ from fry's. The software kind of sucks but the printer does a nice job. The whole chipped cartrige thing is really agervating though.

well based on what you have told me i had a look on amazon and have decided ill probably get the Canon Pixma iP4200. Seems to be quite good. Not as stylish as the Canon Pixma iP4000 but still looks pretty good.

Be aware that the ip4200, while a very good printer (not trying to talk you out of it), has chipped ink cartriges, making refilling difficult and making compatible cartriges much more expensive (I'm not even sure compatible aftermarket cartriges are even avalable yet). That is the big advantage of the ip4000, no chip, so easy refilling and or plenty of cheap but good quality aftermarket cartritges avalable. Either will do a great job printing though. Just be aware that US model canons do not print on cd if you are in the US. In the US, epson is the only choice.

Refilling of chipped cartridges is easy, that's what chip re-setters are for. The old one I got twhen the C-42 came out (that's when epson introduced chipped) works fine with the R200.
