Thermal print is the technology we used on short-run CDs or DVDs (< 500 discs). It utilizes dye-sublimation method to print directly onto the disc face, thus no labels, to achieve highest photolistic print quality for short run discs today. The print is UV stable, and the printable area goes all the way into the center of the disc.

For large run CD replication or DVD replication, offset or silkscreen printing will be used instead.
