My new Canon Pixma Pro-100 can print on CD DVD BLU-Ray discs. I've never had that capability before.
Any recommendations for quality DVD's that have the white printable surface?
I want the disc itself to be high quality. Purpose would be for backup and to deliver slide shows to clients. TIA, Dave

I use the Memorex labeling system - paper labels printed on your Pixma and then stick to the disc. I've been using this for several years with excellent luck.

Spiney, B&H sells Verbatim BD-R Blue ray 25 GB 6X white inkjet hub printable disk in a 50 pack spindle. They claim 2 hours of high definition video. B&H also offers free shipping for this product.

I have also used the labels, primarily on CDs. They seem fine in static devices, but can cause problems in vehicle players while the printable ones do not and look more professional.

It's been a while since I bought DVDs, but the last batch I got were Imation Aquaguard. Seem to be high quality, are hub printable and the big advantage to them is they don't smear. I tested others with a wet finger and they do smear! Used them for a wedding DVD several years ago and no reports of any problems.
Here's a link to their web page:

Looks like they no longer make these, here's a link to a smug proof replacement:

I have had good experience with TDK. I use both the CD's and the DVD's for our church and for my photography. I used to get them from Costco, but I think they stopped carrying them several months ago, darn it.

I agree with Capture48. I use Nikon Image Space to present slideshows to my relatives after our periodic functions. Image Space is free and easy to use. It allows a web address and then you reference that address for presentation. VOILA! IMHO

Not sure how these simple questions get so convoluted; I have used hundreds of HP DVD-R for the last couple of years for my clients on my Canon Pro-10. Enjoy whatever you purchase, they make your DVDs stand out!!

Easily lazya! It's like a trigger mechanism in the brain.......

I recently purchased a 50 stack of Verbatim printable DVDs and have printed 25 with no issues.
Personal experience taught me to stay with Verbatim from CD to BR, They make the best blanks. and I have one Verbatim DVD-RW that has been rewritten over 100 time and still works.

Actually, they are still available on CD's DVD's and Blu-Ray. You're quite right that they can be hard-to-find though. Just keep on looking and you'll find them. I have a "stash" of them in all three formats...

Hello,
I have a video production and duplication company. I believe that the absolute best printable discs out there are JVC white Watershield DVD discs. I get the ones with a
white glossy printable surface with full hub printing. They cost a little bit more, but the printing results are fantastic.
Because I'm printing a large number of discs for my clients, I use a Bravo 4100 auto printer. It will print a full-disc in 6 seconds. The tray will hold 50 blank discs...the robot will load the disc, print it, and then deposit the disc in a capture cup.
I buy my discs from B&H in NYC. They come in stacks of 50 per stack. Hope this is helpful.
PS, They're made in Japan. Here is the Part #

PS: I would never use paper labels.

I've printed hundreds of DVDs and the only brand I count on for a professional and lasting image is Tayio Yuden/JVC. I use a Primera Bravo and Discus software- both worth checking out.
