Avery Printable CD Labels, 40 CD Labels & 80 Spine Labels (5692)

They are DVD/CD labels. What is there to say? They work just fine.

I know cd's & dvd's are kind of pass'e but hey. I'm old and I like em'.

Purchase was a quick and pleasant. The product is great.

Our office is very old fashioned and it has taken me a long time to get it up to speed with technology. This helped immensely!! We were using markers to write on our CDs which looked very unprofessional. Now that we are using this product, our CDs look better than ever and so much more professional.

For the past two years, my husband have done a video for the end of year girls high school tennis banquet. We copied the videos onto discs for all the girls to keep, and used the template with a tennis ball with our title printed on it. Each of the disc jackets got a spine label, too. Everybody loved them, and the appearance of the tennis balls on the disc was very professional looking. Highly recommend for similar activities.

Ok, most people know that I am a big fan of making sure there's a label on the cd I produce with my product information on it. I really want my customers to know that I have taken some great effort with the cd and for this not to be thrown out because the label was handwritten or sloppy - enter the laser printer series with 4 labels per page #5698 PLUS 2 labels per sheet of spine labels for the cases I use. Not only does my color laser put out a great advertisement for my company, but the label is also easy to apply using Avery's CD/DVD label applicator (5699). Good news for the small business I have and also because our stock changes frequently enough that this is easier to provide than a printed catalog that's out of date the moment I send it to the printer. The finished product is in my hottest buyer's hands quickly and can be included in any shipment going out.

I need to store a lot of data and send it out. Whether its photos to family or PDFs I no longer need but need to keep a copy of for reference, burning CDs is what I do to get the clutter off my hard drive and the labels make it easy to see what is on them. And they spice up a CD of pictures sent to family.

I volunteer with a CD ministry at my church. We use these labels for the CD copies of our pastor's messages each Sunday. They are so easy to format and incredibly easy to use. I don't even use the CD Label applicator, just put them on the finished cd's free-hand!

The template that you have to use from Avery is a bit difficult to use in MS Word. I made my own using Gimp 2 and it worked great. This took some technical skill that most buyers will not have. I would suggest that the maker ( avery ) make their own software for making and printing these.

I bought this particular set because it stated it was intended for Laser printers... and I have a Brother Laser printer. The amount of sheets (40) is fair for the price, they also have a nice website that is very helpful, it allows you to print templates online, save projects, etc... The problem comes down to the final product... I really didn't like it at all... quality is extremely poor: whatever you print is barely visible and images difficult to distinguish... and to make things worse if you are not careful at the time you apply the label you end up with your fingers full of some black powder... and your label messed up... from the start, as soon as I took the first sheet in my hands it was evident the end result was not going to be what I expected... the paper used has very poor quality, I have seen common copy paper with far more quality than that...
