    Anybody know if there's such a thing as a cd scanner, put a cd in there, and it scans it for printing?

    I'd like to help but I need a little more info. Are you referring to the CD label or the contents of the CD which I'd assume to be either text or graphics since you want it to be printed.

    you can just scan your cd in with your normal scanner. then use the program that came with your scanner(if you got one) or alternatively a photoshop program i.e ulead photo express.

    then just use crop (you can pick shapes like circle for cd's)

    then save it.

    done.

    or again alternatively just search for the label on the net, there are many sites that have them. use google to search for them

    I agree with RavenLife. This is your most cost effective option. You can purchase CD labelling kits and use the software that comes with it to print unto their blank sheets of CD labels. But there are also standalone machines that can perform this fxn. Here's a link that U may find helpful (http://www.shimad.com/printer.htm#Label).
