Authentic Princo 8x-1x Blank DVD-R'sPrinco is now one of the largest independent manufacturers of blank CD and DVD recordable discs in the world. These Princo blank recordable discs have a shiny WHITE TOPPED non-printable surface without brand imprints, packed in cello-wrapped spindles. The white surface helps protect the vital data layer from accidental scratches and tarnishing from pen inks, fingerprints and label adhesives, and also helps reflect more of the laser light back down into the write or read heads of burners and players. This helps reduce the possibility of most "disc errors". These discs are tested to meet industry standards for everyday use.
GENERAL COMPATIBILITY - Princo discs are compatible with most "general" or "minus" type DVD burners, including today's newest dual +/-RW writers. Compatibility is enhanced and errors reduced if you are using the latest versions of your recording software and also if you have updated your burner's internal firmware. We rate these discs "3 stars out of 5 possible" for reliability and compatibility. If you need the highest quality possible discs for your projects, please try our 4x-2x-1x Stock No. 702588 Silver, or 702641 Inkjet White "best quality" discs.
Upgrading your drive's firmware generally improves performance speed and reliability with blank DVD-Rs. Once you've got the latest drive firmware, then upgrading your DVD burning software to the latest version (from their web pages) can usually improve your drive's performance with many brands of DVD-Rs. Also, some software simply supports one or two drives and disc brands better than others. A little experimentation between leading software programs can save you a lot of time and frustration.
