    Do you want something that can print the round labels, or the actual inserts? (Have you checked your burning software, btw? There's quite often a basic prog bundled).

    P.S. If the former, I was under the impression that this wasn't a great idea (even with an "applier") as it can imbalance the disc. Could be an old wives' tale, though.

    Pretty sure the Press It software is free - they hope you'll but the hardware to go with it.

    @RabbieBurnsPlease remove your sig. It's almost 500k in size and we are receiving complaints from those on slower connections.

    Acoustica is free for schools, prints the discs and covers. I would suggest getting a direct-to-CD printer though, as I've found the sticky labels tend to come off after a while.
