I recently learned that TY makes a silver surface, inkjet disc and I
plan to try them myself.

Gary, methinks you may be over producing the situation as regards
labels on your discs. Do you really think the average customer gives a
rat's arse what the label looks like?

A fancy label on a crappy production will not improve the quality of
the production.
A nice production with an average label will get wows from your
customers.

Not being critical by saying this as I tend to get a bit anal about
some of this stuff myself i.e. credits from a dance convention that
take 70 seconds to roll :-)

I mostly use my Signature Pro printer and I have the settings on
medium quality - takes less ink and prints WAY faster and I have yet
to have a customer call me and say "boy this is a pretty crappy label
on this disc";-^)
