How to get lightscribe to work with this burner?

Amazon emailed me to answer this question. I was very dissapointed in the LG BP06LU10. I cannot answer the question. I returned the LG BP06LU10 since it would not playback BluRay discs even though it would burn them. LG tech support was useless to resolve the issue and their solution was to spend another $100 for additional software from Cyberlink, and they couldn't tell me if it would then playback BluRay. The vendor just refered me to LG support so I returned the drive and got a refund. You might find support at Lightscribe.com, the inventors of the technology. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Apparently Amazon doesn't log when items are returned. Amazon emailed me to answer this question. I was very dissapointed in the LG BP06LU10. I cannot answer the question.

Don't know because I've never used it. I have used it on other DVD burners, but not this one. Didn't even know this one had light scribe technology. I used it before but found it too much of a hassle and too expensive for the Specialized DVD disc

I never got the light scribe to work. I basically stopped trying after I couldn't burn a readable disc.

Despite what you might have read about this burner, it does NOT do lightscribe.

I use Nero 10 with the lightscribe software. And the lightscribe disc has to be flipped top side down to "burn" the label on the disc.

1) you need lightscribe discs, specially formulated/treated to burn print onto the disc2) like the other person said you need to place that disc upside down as in data side up/print side facing the floor-facing the laser to burn/print into the formulated disc, while having the Lightscribe label program open and layed out with the design and text you want on the disc.

Lightscribe software is free from the lightscribe website. This drive does not support lightscribe burning. Poor description.

Works for me. Are you using light scribe disks and turning them upside down when putting into the drive? Did you download the light scribe part of the software? I don't remember if that was automatic or had to be selected. If nothing works, contact Lite-On support.

Download the Lightscribe software (freeware) and it should work fine, as it is Mac compatible. Works well with my iMac OS X Maverick.

Both. You can also burn lightscribe images as well. I've been happy with it.

I dont know. Lightscribe uses specially coated recordable CD and DVD media for its back etching. I would consult HP on this to see if it cab be used or, purchase a small amount of these like a 20-pack or something and try it out.

You have to download the software from an HP sponsored site now. They bought the company. You should be able to google it. The original Lightscribe site does not work anymore.

Well, this burner will work on almost all desktops. It will work as long as your PC supports SATA, as this is a SATA drive. This burner does not support lightscribe, but it will burn normal DVD and CD. This is a 24x drive, so I guess burning at 2.4x won't be a problem.

I have never used the Lightscibe feature, but my recollection is that Lightscribe is part of the software that comes with the drive. Of course, you have to have Lightscribe enabled DVDs to use this feature.

Thank you for your interest in our products. This is not a Lightscribe compatible system.

Yes. However, there exist two models of this DVD RW. When you purchase this model, select correct model - Double Layered RW which only allows you to use LightScribe.For other questions? feel free to ask. Even though I am not a seller, I will be able to answer a lot because I am a computer science research person.

At this time, "Lightscribe Software" will not work with Windows 8. Hopefully, HP will correct this in the future.

I have never used Lightscribe, but I think that it requires a special coating on the disc. Taiyo Yuden has such a disc type, usually slightly more expensive.

You can buy external or internal lightscribes on Amazon. Good luck. I love mine. I make my own mixed CD s and design labels for them.

Sorry, I don't know what "lightscribe" is. However, we haven't had any issues with these cd's at at all!The sound quality is excellent!

I think for the price it's worth the risk of it not working to your expectations. It met mine just fine. I see no reason why it would not be compatible with your system as long as you have SATA connections, and burning speed would be affected by your system's ability. If you want lightscribe search for it, but be prepared to pay the price.

I got this about one year ago or so and have a windows 7 desk top. I got the lightscribe program/directions free from the hp.com (Hewlett Packard) web site. Everything worked great (be sure to have CD/DVD upside down-gold side down)...I hope this helps
