An alternative to stick-on labels is printing directly on disk. This
gives you more colour options than LightScribe and is less likely to
cause imbalance. It's almost a standard feature in most ink jet printers.

It looks like you can't do color, only various shades of the disk background color and basic black. For example, If you've got a red disk, your label could be various shades of red with black text.
