CD Printing

Discus Group offer the following 4 print methods

Offset Litho Print - The highest quality print method for photographic images or where a vingette is used in the design. Output at 195 lpi (80 lines per cm) gives the best print results for detail. Offset printing gives the best results and offers the following advantages, Consistent high image quality and the more you print the less you pay. Tonal ranges of 5% to 95% much better than Silk Screen, thin layer of paint applied, this can give less brilliance and shine than silk screen. Only CMYK printing available for CD body printing, no pantones allowed.

Silk Screen - Retail grade print method used for large print runs. Best suited to text, graphics and solid colours or where a pantone is required. Output is 135 lpi (54 lines per cm) giving high quality permanent print results and is more cost effective than Offset Litho Print. Thicker layers of paint are used resulting in high brilliance and shine. Suitable for Pantone colour matching, Luminous colours or special varnishes or glazing. Tonal range 15% to 85%.

Thermal Litho Print - High quality permanent disc printing method suitable for shorter print runs where retail quality is a must. Perfect for short runs or quick turnaround times as printing is straight from artwork disc to print. Not suitable for Pantones, Tonal Range 20% to 80%, 170 LPI (62 lines per cm)

Digital Print - sometimes called Digital disc printing - Photo quality print direct to the face of the DVD, using inkjet dvd printing. Our budget print option which is the cheapest most cost effective high quality disc print possible for short runs with no minimum quantity. Digial DVD printing gives vibrant photographic quality print and leaves a matt finish to the disc. Note as the ink is water soluble it may spoil if subjected to wet conditions. Discs can be lacquered to give some resistance to moisture but this is not a perfect solution. Tonal range 5% to 95%

CD Label Printing - we do not recommend stick on labels to customers due to the many disadvantages they have and time taken to apply.

What is the best CD disc print ?

Discus Group offer four types of printing on the surface of the CD disc.

Digital disc printing - inkjet print on special discs coated with an ink receptive print surface. The cheapest most cost effective high quality disc print possible for short runs with no minimum quantity. Gives vibrant photographic quality print and leaves a matt finish to the disc. Note as the ink is water soluble it may spoil if subjected to wet conditions. Discs can be lacquered to give some resistance to moisture but this is not a perfect solution.

Thermal Litho disc printing - Designed for Retail grade photo quality print for short print runs of discs with no minimum quantity. On a par with Offset Litho printing see below, but more expensive than digital print, but used for products headed for retail or where corporate brand is important.

Silk Screen disc printing - Requiring longer lead times than digital cd print or thermal cd print this is the most common method of print onto discs for retail. The process involves separating out the 4 colour channels of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black or spot colours onto films. These films are exposed onto silk frames which are then used for printing the discs. Generally available at 135 LPI (lines per inch). Silk screen is best for solid colours, graphics and text.

Offset Litho disc printing - by far the best print obtained is Litho print for photographs or fine details on discs. Output is 195 LPI (Lines per Inch). Suitable for larger print runs and is unrivalled on quality

CD label printing - We do not recommend the use of sticky labels for applying designs to discs as they have been known to peel off the disc when left in a machine which gets hot. This leaves the distributer with a liability to repair the recipients machine
