How to use

To use these discs, insert the media into a compatible DVD+R DL writer. Ensure your burning software is configured to recognize the 8.5GB capacity. If you intend to print a label, use an inkjet printer compatible with printable optical media. Place the disc in the printer tray with the white surface facing up and follow the printer manufacturer's instructions for disc printing, ensuring the design stays within the 21-118mm printable area. Allow the ink to dry completely before handling or inserting the disc into a drive.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your DVD writer supports DVD+R Double Layer media
• Ensure your inkjet printer is capable of printing directly onto optical discs
• Check that your data volume does not exceed the 8.5GB limit per disc

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, always use high-quality inkjet printers and allow the printed surface to dry for at least 24 hours before storing the disc in a protective case to prevent smudging or damage to the label.
