Otherwise the balance of the disc in the drive might be upset, causing excessive noise, vibration, read errors. You may apply the label manually, which will require some practice before you get suitable results, or use a special applicator which helps with centering.
An interesting variety of labels are Hewlett-Packard Tattoo labels. These are 5x7 in sheets with a semi-transparent label in the center. You print the mirrored image of your label on the back side of the sheet with any inkjet printer. Then peel the label off, apply to the disc using the supplied applicator, press down, and the label sticks to the disc due to adhesive rings in the hub area and around the outer edge.
Such labels are glossy, smear-resistant and bubble-free. For best results use them with light-colored or white discs. Labels printers such as Dymo, Seiko, Brother, Zebra and similar are normally associated with barcodes, mailing and other general-purpose labels. Surprisingly, they can also be used to print small round labels for discs, if such paper is available. As the rolls are rather narrow, only a small diameter label fits, covering less than half of a standard-sized disc.
Both printers can also be used to print diskette, VHS and other media labels, depending on the available supplies. Though offering low cost, good quality and compatibility with a wide range of printers, adhesive labels have some disadvantages. First of all, if applied unevenly, the disc will look unattractive, and, what's worse, the disc's balance may upset and cause its shattering in the drive, vibration, noise and read errors — even damage to the drive.
The glue on the labels may over time react with the disc's lacquer and damage the sensitive dye layer thought it's unlikely with labels designed specially for CDs and DVDs. Printing on label paper normally requires calibration of the printer to make sure that the designs fit accurately on the labels on the sheet.
So, first you will need to do a test print on a sheet of label paper and make adjustments in the label design software to compensate for any printing offsets. Paper labels are sensitive to moisture and smearing inkjet-printed labels. If your computer is equipped with a slot-loading optical drive, never use discs with any adhesive labels — drive manufacturers recommend against it.
