Summary: Not quite professional quality, but good enough for personal use
Comment: These ribbons are quite good. The printing is crisp, and they are very easy to use. They are great for how I use them, just labeling DVDs of my kids' movies.

Note, though, that the description is a little incomplete. From the box it says they work with all CW series title printers (not just CW-50 and CW-75, as mentioned here). I have the CW-100, and they work just fine.

Two words of caution:

1. These thermal printers require a *very* smooth surface, preferably a completely bare CD/DVD. I learned the hard way by trying it on inkjet-writable DVDs that have a rougher surface...it just leaves a light shadow of the intended text.

2. Don't expect these these to perform like professional-grade CD/DVD printers. They work best only for standard, monochrome (single color) text. Custom fonts and images won't turn out well, especially larger text/images. (That leaves horizontal streaks--I think it's from where the ribbon overlaps itself when making subsequent passes.)

Summary: Prints on smooth disks only
Comment: Won't print on rough surfaces (ink printable). I knew this ahead of time, but I got a deal on 1000 Verbatim 4x white printable and wish I could use this on them. Taiyo-Yuden silvertops are the best made, and this printer works great on them.

I get about 50 prints out of this using the keyboard (CW-75) and never trying the software. I bought this for $3.99 from an Amazon seller for black. Ive seen 3-packs in the store for over $20 which I would never pay.

If I hadnt found a ribbon here for $4, my Casio would still be sitting in its box. Get with the times, Casio, you already got us on the $99+ cost of the product which has a short lifespan, give us a break on the refills!
