I did it before but the CD was really wet. How can i make it stick w/ out smearing and coming off. I have nero cover design software for my HP photosmart printer
Answer:
Don't listen to the clowns telling you you can't print on CDs, or that you need a LightScribe burner. What you need are printable CDs! These have a different surface to normal 'run of the mill' CDs and the ink doesn't stay wet on them for longer than about 30 seconds. (I am presuming here that you’ve a printer that prints directly to CD/DVD. I use an Epson Stylus Photo R300 and the results are excellent. You should find that printable CDs are only marginally, if at all, more expensive than regular CDs.)
Here's a few sites that sell printable CDs though I've never had dealings with any of them. I buy mine locally, at a small, independent computer shop. (Just do a search for blank printable CDs for many more places.)
Answer:
There are paper sheets with “stickers” for a lack of a superior word. You print to these, and then stick it to the CD.
There are also CD Printers, for CDs with the right kind of covering. Are you using a HP Photosmart D5360?
Here’s a link to thermal printers, expensive:

Here is a link to HPs site, maybe this is what you’re using? This page has links to the kind of Media that’ll work for you. They are designed to be printed to. That’s most likely your current issue. If the CDs you are using are your standard silver top, these are NOT the ones to use if you want to print to.

Also, you can get a DVD/CD burner that uses lightscribe to burn an image into the top of a special lightscribe cd/dvd media.

Answer:
Dude, I work as a personal tech so listen up. One, you need a printer that has the capability to print to cd's. Two, don't use just any cd, you need to make sure the ones you’re buying are made to be printed on (it will tell you on the container).
Forget lightscribes, they are crap are are not what you want.
