Wow, I had forgotten how old this thread was... In any case I was in the market for a new printer than can do direct printing (getting rid of those labels finally) and am looking mainly at Epson's R260 ($79.99 after rebate) and their R38 ($129.99). Any ideas on how either of them would stack up against one another (assuming all I'm looking for is direct to disc as well as regular printing for school work and such)? Thanks guys!
