More and more business, government and education offices, audio and video professionals, software and game developers, graphic artists, churches and other private organizations, and individual video enthusiasts are looking for a cost effective means to duplicate and publish DVDs and CDs for customers, clients, employees, students, organization members, etc. The need to duplicate and publish both DVDs and CDs in your office, where you have total control of the schedules, quantity and content has been growing since the first Optical Technology Recorders came on the scene.
In most office environments burning a DVD or CD has become commonplace. Just as commonplace is the need to make copies of these DVDs and CDs with custom labels. The usual practice has been to mark your original discs or copies with a disc marking pen or stick on a unprofessional paper label prepared on another machine. A marker can be a fast label solution but it's messy and, depending on your handwriting, more or less illegible. Adhesive labels are a hassle. Even with a special device to apply them, they don't always end up as smooth and even as you would like. With an inkjet printer, you have the expense of ink cartridges to think about. What is needed is quick, easy and cost effective desktop solution that can record discs and make copies with professional labels.
The equipment available to copy discs and label them has required making a substantial investment in a machine that is, only by a stretch of the imagination, “desktop” (even though some of them are called that). More than one person is required to move some of these machines so to get copies you have to go to the machine rather than having the machine at your desk where the work is.
The cost and size of these machines is only the tip of the iceberg. The cost of the consumables required to keep them running is formidable. Most of these duplicators require proprietary supplies, especially expensive ink cartridges or ribbon, in some cases even the recording media. When your duplicator can only use supplies available from the manufacturer of the duplicator itself , prices will always soar to premium levels.
Duplicating a few DVDs and CDs with an attractive, professional looking, custom label at your desk, without cumbersome and expensive equipment and supplies has been a fantasy until the 1:1 DVD/CD Copy Cruiser Pro LS. The 1:1 DVD/CD Copy Cruiser Pro LS combines three simple components, a DVD-ROM, a LightScribe DVDRW, and a stand alone duplicator controller into a powerful personal desktop DVD/CD publishing system. It duplicates DVDs and CDs, and prints custom LightScribe labels on each, all in the same unit, so you have finished discs ready for your customers or staff. LightScribe labels are precise, expressive, and easy to make. Once you've burned your first LightScribe label and experienced the amazing result, you'll never want to use a permanent marker or sticky label again. LightScribe makes it easy. It truly is a revolution in disc labeling.
How many times have you wanted CDs with only your favorite music selections. Now you can compile your own custom audio CDs with the 1:1 DVD/CD Copy Cruiser Pro LS without a computer, as well as duplicate CDs at speeds up to 48x. Suppose you have just created a music CD of your favorite songs. Burn your tracks onto the data side of a LightScribe disc.

Flip the disc over to the label side and put it back in the DVD/CD recorder. Connect your DVD/CD Copy Cruiser Pro LS to your PC and launch the Nero Express Software. The advanced features of the 1:1 DVD/CD Copy Cruiser Pro LS make it the right choice for your computer room, entertainment center and your office or business.

With laser precision, LightScribe delivers closely controlled light energy to multiple points on the disc as it spins in the drive. The result is a high-resolution reproduction of the artwork, text, or photos you composed in the software application. Seeing is believing!
