How to install Verbatim DVD+R DL 8.5GB 8X DataLifePlus White Thermal Printable, Hub Printable - 50pk Spindle
Getting started with these discs is straightforward, yet a few best practices help you achieve consistent results. Begin by verifying that your DVD writer supports double-layer DVD+R media and that you have DL-capable firmware installed. If you’re performing a data backup or distribution burn, ensure your authoring software is configured to use a DVD+R DL format and that you select the correct target for a dual-layer write.
Insert a blank Verbatim DVD+R DL disc into the drive with the label side facing up. In your software, organize your data or video project, then start the burn at up to 8X, provided your hardware and media profiles indicate DL-capable speeds. After the burn completes, allow the disc to cool briefly before touching the surface. If you plan to label the disc, use a compatible thermal printer and load the white printable surface into the printer according to your device’s instructions. When applying artwork, ensure the hub area is used for alignment to achieve a precise, uniform label across all discs in your spindle.
Once printed, handle the disc by the edges to avoid touching the surface, and store it vertically in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. When stacking or packaging multiple discs, maintain a clean, dust-free environment and use protective sleeves or cases to prevent scratches. For best long-term performance, keep humidity levels moderate and avoid temperature extremes. These practices support reliable read-back and minimize the likelihood of data degradation over time.
