Re: CD/DVD Cover design software?

Thank you to all who replied to my query :) Discus seems like a very good and popular product. But I think I'll go with either Disc Cover by Belight, or DiscLabel due to their integration with Aperture. Thanks for informing me of the problems you had Martin with alignment, something to be wa

Re: canon ip4300

It would seem that the IP4300, like the Canon i5600, has separate ink tanks without the inbuilt print heads which makes refilling, or inks from Hong Kong a nice cheap option. I have purchased HK inks and they work very well. Kevin -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives -
