Printing on CD This printer can print on CDs, at least it does in Europe (same thing as the IP-4200 that has the feature for Europe but not for America). Can someone confirm if the feature is installed or if we are again left aside?

You can also buy the Canadian version and it prints to CD/DVD. It is only $49 at FutureShop this week.

The feature is NOT included on US models. However, if you can get your hands on one of the printing trays (eBay, etc..) you can download the european drivers and print to cd/dvd (s).

As noted you can mod the printer fairly easily to print onto discs; check for your model on eBay to get the tray and roller assembly. FWIW, I've helped a few friends mod iP4000 Pixma printers and it's a pretty easy modification.

You must also put the printer into service mode and change it to Europe instead of USA. Then the Disc Dabber does indeed work!

The Canon CD tray is not included in units for America, but you can get a "Disc Dabber Tray" which is especially designed for the American version of the printer, because it can even work without a tray roller, which is not installed in many of the American units. The driver that comes with the printer will work, it only needs to be reinstalled after getting a tray.

Printing on this disc requires an inkjet printer capable of printing on discs. Assuming that your printer can, I would suggest checking the printer user manual for instructions on how to print on a disc. My printer is an Epson Stylus Photo R280 which is an older printer but works well for me. It has a disc feed mechanism built into the tray area where paper exits after being printed on. Usually there is a separate utility by the printer manufacturer that also must be installed. If you don't have your printer manual, you should be able to search for one on the web. While I was learning, I did some testing on plain printer paper until I got the hang of it - this helped me avoid wasting discs due to bad printing. Hope this helps you get started.

It has duplex printing (as long as you set the print properties for that) and it's supposed to have duplex copying, but I've never used that feature.

No u are not able to print titles, it just burns the CD, still a great product though!

You need an inkjet printer that comes with a special tray to hold the disk. The tray is then inserted into the printer for printing on the disc. Regular inkjet printers aren't set up for this. Printers like the Epson Stylus Photo R200 Ink Jet Printer (C11C546011) ($400) print directly on disk and it's sold here on Amazon. I've used this printer and it works fine if you're only printing the occasional cd or dvd. Another printer here on Amazon, Canon PIXMA MG6320 Inkjet Multifunction Printer - Color - Photo/Disc Print - Desktop is only $63, but I've not used it an can't speak to how it operates. If you're looking to print large quantities of discs, you'll want to look at the more professional printer like the Primera Autoprinter, also here on Amazon, for about $890. Hope that helps.

Hello, first of all you need a printer capable of printing cds or dvds. I use the Epson Stylus Photo R260. It is a bit old but there should be many others.

I only owned this printer for two years until it broke and cost more to repair then buying a new one. To answer your question, I don't see it possible to be able to print on a disk. There was only a paper feeding tray as far as I can remember. Hope this helps and I would look into buying a different (less ink hungry) printer if it's not too late

Some printers, I have an Epson inkjet, have CD/DVD print capability. The printer drivers help format for the disk. Many USA printers companies do not offer the option. Epson has in the recent past on some models (such as Artisan 837). Outside the USA apparently some printer companies offer the option more than inside the USA. Sometimes it is possible to find adapter kits on eBay - so I've been told.

If your printer can print on cd's, I don't see why it wouldn't print on these following the same directions. They are about the same size. Direct printing opens up another world of possible effects with these.

The ip3600 does not have wireless capability. It can be shared on a network using device sharing in Windows 7 and 8, but it must be USB connected to a computer on the network that is on when one tries to print to the printer. You will also need to have the drivers installed on each computer.

This is a wired print server, so the printer will have to have a wire running from it to a router. However, if that router is a wireless router, then your laptop can print as long as it is using that same wireless router.

Hello - No, you can't print directly from Photoshop. I just tried. It doesn't allow me to select the CD/DVD tray in the "SOURCE" option and the CD/DVD options are grayed out in the "MEDIA TYPE" area. So, you would have to export the image, open it in the Print CD application, and print from there. Sorry!

There is no option for plug and play connections to printers, etc. Printing happens either to another location or using a windows-based network running chrome. I still have not successfully printed anything. This aspect is really the only downside to the chromebook that I have experienced thus far.

It only prints special black I'd cards. No disks. You can check with printer company if your model has the ability to print on special inkjet disks. Most require an adapter plate as special printer mode to print on a disk. With Epson they provide the adapter with the printer at the time of purchase. You can check manufacturer specs on the model printer for the option of printing on disks. Then do a search on amazon for the needed adapter. Which will print one disk at a time using special software for creating a layout for a disk. Most manufacturers provide that software on the driver disk that comes with the printer.

I'm not sure you can print CDs / DVDs on a 5220. I used to have one, but even with the tray you need to force the printer to non-US settings (at the time the 5220 was released I understand Canon did not want to pay the license fees to enable CD printing) If you read the 5220 description there's no mention of CD printing. The 5420 comes with the tray, and all necessary software and mine works great!

I have not had a single problem with this printer in any way. It also prints directly on CDs. I have scanned photos and documents all have turned out great. Best printer I have ever had.

are you asking if the iP4300 can print in black & white, surely you're not asking that, maybe I have missed the full question, the iP4300 is a brilliant printer, able to print in Black & white, direct onto cd & dvd discs, automatic duplex, borderless, oh the list goes on, and you can now buy the CISS system which saves 's or $$$$$'s, whereever you reside
