How to Burn a Color Image on the Front of a CD

A CD printer or a peel-off label can be used to put an image on the front of a CD.

CDs have come a long way since their introduction and no longer require writing on them for labeling. There are printers that can print directly onto a CD. These printers are expensive and often require special CDs for the printed label to stick. There are also labels a normal printer cane produce that can be peeled off and attached to the CD. Printed labels are cheaper, work on all CDs and are usually more useful for consumers.
