TDK puts out recordable Blu-Ray discs with printable surfaces

GARDEN CITY, N.Y. –TDK, said it has begun shipping recordable Blu-ray Discs with printable surfaces.

The two new products are the BD-R25PWX25CB (US$24.99) for inkjet systems, and BD-R25THX25CB (US$24.99) for thermal systems. Both incorporate exclusive surface coatings said to deliver professional quality printing results. The discs utilize TDK’s exclusive DURABIS technology to offer durability.

TDK’s proprietary printable surfaces yield the highest quality output from a range of devices including Microboards, Microtech, Primera (including the Primera Accent II Disc Laminator), Rimage Everest and TEAC.
