Taiyo Yuden has recently released a new silver inkjet printable watershield recordable CD. It features a hub printable glossy silver surface and all the benefits of Taiyo Yuden's Water Shield CD. Designed for inkjet disc printers it dries very fast avoiding smudges. It is 52x compatible and comes packaged in 50 disc spindles.
Taiyo Yuden Watershield offers water resistance, glossy finish and an amazing silver print surface. Like regular silver inkjet printable CDs the surface has a iridescent depth unlike any other CD printable surface.

Color mixing is incredible with Taiyo Yuden Watershield recordable CD discs.

One of the greatest challenges with CD and DVD manufacturers has been the inkjet printable surface of a recordable disc. Many improvements have been made over time but the greatest achievement is the water-resistant surface of Taiyo Yuden. Taiyo Yuden has created a glossy and water resistant printable surface called "Watershield". Imation offers a matte white ink-jet printable surface under the brand name: "AquaGuard". Depending on your requirements each has it's place.
Imation AquaGuard matte surface gives a more muted color spectrum, helping to hide any imperfections in the label image. AquaGuard's surface is very similar to a regular inkjet printable surface in some ways. The product line spans CD-R, DVD-R, DVD+R and now recordable Blu-ray or BD-R. It features a hub printable inkjet printable disc surface.
Taiyo Yuden's Watershield surface is glossy and dries very quickly. Image resolution is good and color vibrancy is high. It resembles silk-screened (although silk-screen is limited in color mixing) resolution. It's very much the surface everyone compares their attempts at copying Watershield media. Taiyo Yuden manufacturers Watershield in both CD-R and DVD-R and is distributed by Microboards Technologyin the United States. Watershield CD-R and Watershield DVD-R are hub-printable. Taiyo Yuden CDs are 52x and the DVD-R is 16X.
It's important with any print job to make sure one is putting down the right amount of ink and not too much. Many times this contributes to drying issues and in the long run financial issues ;)
It's best to use just the right amount of ink for best results. Too little or two much ink can make even the best printable disc look amateurish.
