I feel that if one is going to use media, use what creates the least problems.

Don't know which printer you are using. My Epson cannot slide left or right as it is in a grooved slot with no play left or right. Have never had a smudged cd to date. It is as professional as i have seen anywhere. I even checked mine again (Epson Stylus Photo 595) just to see if there was any play or loose fit anywhere, and could find none. After two years, approximately 300 CD labels printed, I am completely satisfied with it, and would purchase another. Sorry you are having trouble. Why did you end up with two?

well the first one i kinda messed around with the outline so when i print a disc the center hole is not where it supposed to be, and i tried to call cdrom2go for support and i didnt get any, so i ended up buying another one which i thought was better, it worked for about a year and them the adapter started sliding to the left, and i had to kinda help guiding it so it wont slide to the left, i just kinda got tired of it, so i stored it in the garage collecting dust..and also since i started using my laptops to do shows, i dont need to print those cd's anymore...i just copy ( my music ) in an ext. hhd..

I've been using an Epson R300 for years now, Cd tray fits in a slot so cannot slide left or right centers the disk dead accurate, prints perfect. I use HP- CD-R White faced printable disk, the printable surface goes right up to the hub so you get maximum printable surface, never had a problem with them.

Roy, thanks for the Epson response. I prefer the silver, hub printable media, as i feel it makes a more professional looking label. We use these to send out promo packages to venues on the east coast of the USA.
Like your Epson, the R595 cannot slip as it is in a groove. Best part of the Epson printers is the price of ink, but they produce quality printing for all uses.
