I recently ventured into the world of lightscribe, and i am currently learning as much as i can on how to use this wonderful tool. Ok, so here's the problem: I am printing the disks with the unforgetable Nero 10 cover designer thingie, and i have this unprinted Crescent around the outer edge of the disk. I am using images and pictures, and my daughter now has a "flat top" (incidentally i think that i will postpone her enlistment to the Marines for a few years, as she is . Does anyone know why this is happening, I mean it's like the printed image is smaller and is fitted to one edge of the disk, hence the crescent effect on the other side of the media.

This happens to me rarely, but LS Disks have Marks in the hub of the disk which are used for Media Detection, Positioning, & Timing.

These Marks allow you to re-burn the label in the exact same location on the disk.

I usually just re-clean the LABEL side including the Marks & do the burn again.

The previously un-burned part is lighter than the rest of the label.
