CD Labelprint is superior to any "free" solutions. If you have Nero or
Photoshop, there are ways to use them, but again no better than LablePrint.

haveing problems printing labels at the mo. Even if i resize them to
the maxium to the CD size in the canon software they are still not to
the edge of the cd

I'am using round scanned images you get a in a MP3 downloaded Mp3
pack,

Any software that just automaticly rezies it to the cd and print sit
properly to the edge of a CD. I can;t seem to see this option in the
canon software ??

Thanks./\

You need to create a new template for your blank CD's. Although the Canon
software is limited to 118 mm.
Create templates by using the "select paper" function. Use a ruler to
measure the printable area of the disc, then enter those numbers in the
template. To make you image fill the disc, use the button for "background",
not the image button.

Thanks will do. You think they would be able to print to a DVD using
the software right, without making a template !!!!!!

Or am I weird ??

Thanks man I did as i was told and it worked. 118mm printed nearly to
the edge, well good enough for me, but I would like that extra .5 to
make it look perfect though

Will do for now.

Thanks.

All printable discs have different printable areas, depending on who made
it. That's the reason why the default template doesn't fit them all.
