They may work for you
(3 out of 5) by K. Simmons on Jan 19, 2008 (London, UK)Good luck...maybe your printer will not have a problem with these. Mine did.
I used two different programmes: Express Labler from Roxio and the Photo Fusion application on the HP website. The instructions for the Tattoo is pretty simple - design your label, print it on the tattoo, wait for it to dry properly, then stick it on your CD/DVD.
However, my printer would not print in the right area on the label, despite following the instructions to the letter - it was always half an inch too high or two low. I tried continual adjustments, customising the paper size. I nearly got there, but this fiddling caused countless printer and/or software crashes. In the end, I used the Roxio programme but only got 6 out of the 15 labels to a half-decent standard. I'm pretty unimpressed that I could not get better results, using HP paper in an HP printer (from HP software on an HP laptop).
Once on, they look pretty cool. Like I say, if they work first time, you are lucky. If not, is it worth the hours of fiddling around...?

Professional Finish
(5 out of 5) by Ms. Melody A. Tanner on Feb 23, 2008Having had to buy a new printer and getting 3 free Tattoos with the printer, I was very impressed on how easy it was to create a professional looking cd label and to print it aswell.A friend was impressed too, so we tried to print with her printer (her printer not being hp printer)and to her joy they were just as good comming from her printer, we only had to tweak the settings slightly.So at the moment I'm re-doing all my cd labels I'm that impressed.
