DVD Label Printing
I have an Epson Stylus Photo R300 printer and have been using the Epson “Print CD” software and have been very happy with results. Ever since I upgraded to Snow Leopard, I am unable to print a DVD. When I get the print dialogue box open, it does not give m an option to select CD/DVD as the “media type”…there is literally not option…it does not exist anymore. I also have noticed that when I click print and the dialogue box opens up, when I select printer, then “add printer”, there are no printers to select. Can anyone help?
My apologies if this is not the appropriate place to post this,-Dan
ps – I am open to any suggestions for alternative free or inexpensive DVD printing software.
Thanks

I stopped using epson print CD when I moved to 10.5 because it just never worked well on anything other then 10.4 and epson does not care to make any update available.
Check out Disc Cover 2

Have you checked with Epson that they have a Snow leopard driver or software update for that printer?
-
Did you check the Epson website for new drivers? I own an Epson R280, and Epson has Snow Leopard drivers available for my printer. The Snow Leopard software package includes a new version of Print CD (Print CD 2?).

Thanks Ken:
I figured out a manual hack using the original software and Leopard but this is much better. I really appreciate you posting this.
