Does NEC bring from this month optical writers on the market, with which labels on descriptive bar dvds are to burn. With this technique, LabelFlash, tries the Japanese manufacturer its large competitor HP (and service LightScribe-solution) the loef finished to stick. The base of the LabelFlash-system is formed through Disc T@2, a label system that Yamaha in 2002 developed.

The large advantage of LightScribe and LabelFlash is that during the burning of a disk immediately with the laser on a not-destructive manner a label can be put in. A minpunt is that the burning (at most) twenty minutes longer lasts, and special (expensive) disks necessary are.

The makers of LabelFlash claim to do the better. Opposite the limited grey tint of LightScribe, they place 256-blauwtinten. The NEC-system is moreover more fast: the writeproces lasts at most five minutes, says the manufacturer. It is otherwise also possible round the descriptive bar side to labels, but this goes at the cost of the raise space for data. Also by LabelFlash its special, expensiver media necessarily.

The LightScribe-engineers presented meanwhile during the IFA-purse, past September in Berlin, an update for their solution. As it is now possible blue, red, orange, yellow and green tint to use.
