What is the difference between a 'white disc' and a frosted silver disc?
A 'white disc' has white ink pre-printed on the face of the disc. We then put down the CMYK inkjet printing on top of that. This is what we recommend to achieve results that looks most like your proof. The 'silver frosted disc' is the standard silver color face of the CD or DVD that has a pearlescent finish on top. We then put down the CMYK inkjet printing on top of that.

Can I print to the center on my duplicated short run CD or DVD?
We have the ability to print to the center on our duplicated short run CDs and DVDs, on both our white and frosted silver discs. If you are printing to the center, we recommend using the white discs.

Are the inks used waterproof?
We use pro-quality inkjet disc printers. However, they are not waterproof.
