Does this blu-ray drive support lightscribe?

The Pawtec website provides third-party drivers for lightscribe to be used with Pawtec products (google: lightscribe download pawtec). I have not used lightscribe so I cannot comment on how well these drivers work. Good luck.

Yes, it does Lightscribe. All you need is the software...Wavey Davey - 6-9-2014

It comes with a light scribe software of some kind. I'm not sure what version because I don't use it. However, I'm sure it'll will work with windows 7 and 8. I have a Mac and needed to install parallels to enable the lightscribe feature. The only thing you need a computer for, with this machine, is for creating lightscribe menus. If you're simply duplicating DVDs, it works on its own.

I got this to work with my MBP once with "Lightscribe Simple Labeler" software. From that point on, The Pawtec would not recognize ANY media inserted. Tried it on my PC and it was working 25% of the time. Overall, it wasted about 25-30 lightscribe discs with incomplete or very faint burns. HOWEVER, in answer to question: you will need to source Lightscribe software from somewhere online as it's not standard Mac software.

Check the light scribe site and make sure the drivers and software are installed properly. I had the same problem but now I'm burning custom discs with awesome templates from their site. Also stick a light scribe DVD in the drive upside down and see if it opens the lights drive automatically.

Hi, Holly,Well, it's supposed to have the Lightscribe capacity. But I've never managed to burn more than have a disk label, so I wouldn't buy this counting on using that. Too bad, I miss having it. Working fine on my old LaCie DVD burner. If you manage to get it going I have a pack of 50 Lightscribe disks to sell-cheap.Also be aware it wants two USB ports.Cheryl

You need an external DVD/CD player/writer. I happened to have one which does LightScribe, so I was okay. I did not check close enough in the specs to notice it did not come with the DVD/CD Writer.

As long as you mean the physical "drive" and not the software driver, the answer is yes. I have played commercial DVDs using this drive that I retrofit into a Dell small form factor computer as I wanted a LightScribe drive. It if will fit in your computer, it should play DVDs with no problem.

I installed one on a Windows Vista Home Premium machine that had an LG DVD reader/burner with Lightscribe. The client was not using the Lightscribe capability. The device worked perfectly, had it installed and running in about 10 minutes. The most important thing to remember is that you must connect power to both the CD/DVD drive AND the interface or it will NOT work.

I am not sure, however HP started the technology but does not support it any longer. LG still manufacture drives with lightscribe although the technology is not very popular.

I use my LG Portable Super Multi Drive GP08 with Windows 8.1 and also use lightscribe to burn labels. It is slightly slower via USB than my internal Blu-Ray burner, but works well just the same.I use Power2Go and LabelPrint to burn the disk and labels.

We purchased this for a client and it did not come with software. I would hazard that you will just get the drive itself. Hope this is helpful: thepiratebay.org search "lightscribe" one of those will do the trick the title "LightScribe_Software " seems to be legit and works fine on my test system.

I do not use it for lightscribe. From all I can see from research, a DVD burner has to be Lightscribe Enabled to do that and those run in the 45-50 dollar and higher area. This is a simple DVD Reader Burner that does the job, when a portable one is required. I do have Lightscribe duplication equipment and it is expressly designed for Lightscribe work, when combined with the correct software, so I am familiar with Lightscribe. Hope that helps.......SHALOM......Brother Randahl

The drive works as it is supposed to, no negatives. I have used lightscribe drives/discs for a long time, usually use a major brand and have had no trouble.

I installed this in Win 7 SP1 with no issues. It didn't come with any software as a bare bones drive. If your having issues, the I would suggest going to the lightscribe web site and download the latest drivers for your OS if your having lightscribe burning issues. I didn't need any blu-ray software either.

You must install Lightscribe Core Software to enable the Lightscribe option.
