Vinpower Digital has announced the release of the industry's
first standalone LightScribe publishing system. According to their press release, the SharkCopier LS can duplicate discs and burn
LightScribe labels without being connected to a computer.
The SharkCopier LS can be used as a publishing system by first
creating the disc image art on a computer, then loading the image onto the standalone duplicator for disc label duplication. LightScribe
offers a free LightScribe Template Labeler at www.lightscribe.com that supports a fast creative process and a robust suite of label
template options. The duplicator can be used anywhere there is a suitable electrical outlet without being tied to a computer with these
simple steps:
1) Load the LightScribe capable CDs or DVDs into the drives a. Put the label side face down to
print 2) The duplicator will laser-inscribe the programmed image onto the discs 3) Flip the disc over in the same drive onto the
data duplicating side 4) The duplicator will copy the selected data 5) The duplicated discs will now have a label design and the
specified data content
The LightScribe labeling process offers the ability to print and burn in one
standalone system, no longer tying the user to a PC or limiting them to a mere 2 or 4 drive maximum capacity. The SharkCopier LS is
available in various sizes and prints all discs simultaneously from 1-to-1 up to 1-to-15 to fit the needs of even the most demanding
duplication job.
