So I'm in the market for a new printer and I primarily use it to print inserts for various DVD projects. Can anyone make some good recommendations?
I'd prefer one that will print directly to the surface of the DVD/CD as well so it would have to have that tray.
I have the Epson R200 - it has 6 separate ink tanks (black, yellow, light cyan, cyan, light magenta, magenta) and prints on CDs/DVDs. It's a good printer, but I don't know if it's still available- I'm sure Epson has replaced it with a similar one, though.
I have the Epson R380. It's awesome. It's the printer I used to print the Story of Empire on the Taiyo Yuden water shield disc / insert I sent you last year. Excellent quality!

Yeah, those discs look great! :-)
Are you telling me it's possible to make color labels on the actual discs themselves. Because I know about paper labels ruining dvd playback and I now have a lightscribe burner but are there other possibilities?

Yes, there are discs that have printable surfaces. They're plain white, and you just put the disc into the supplied disc tray that comes with the printer, and the image is printed directly onto the disc.
Here's an example of printable CD-Rs:
