Handling DVD and CD Media
Take care when handling blank CD and DVD media. Dust, scratches,
and fingerprints on either side of the disc can cause write errors during
recording. When picking up or holding blank media you can either place
your fingers along the outer edge of the disc, or place one finger through
the center hole and one finger on the outer edge. Once you have finished
creating a disc, label it by writing on the top using permanent ink.
CAUTION
: We recommend using a “non-toxic” marker, such as a
Sharpie
®
pen, that conforms to the ASTM D-4236 standard. Some
permanent markers will damage the media. Also, do not press too
hard when writing on the disc.
