    I've got an HP640c. It came with sonic express labeler,wouldn't work for me. I use Surething 4SE.

    Here's the link:

    Look for Surething 4SE.

    Just below the Surething 4SE program,you'll see and enhancement utility.

    [bold] EXTENDED LABEL CONTRAST UTILITY[/bold]
    ELCU for short.
    Remember that utility.You'll have to have your labeling software installed before downloading ELCU. I had to add that to give better clarity and contrast for my LS covers. I had to scribe my covers twice-per disc.That utility took care of that issue.

    I also use Nero's cover designer program.

    I download the majority of my covers from this free site:

    http://covers.box.sk/.

    It's one of the best,free covers sites.

    Locate the title you want-if it's a dvd/cd movie.Lots of selections so find the highest resolution. Just locate the pic you want,let it download,right click-save picture as,and send it to a folder on your harddrive.

    Then when you open up your lightscribe program,just fish out that pic. You may have to adjust the final size to fit your template-usually simple dragging. I use those covers for full hubs,LS,and reg hubs.
