My Lightscribe prints on the CD come out fairly faint using the default software.

Any programs or tips on how to get really strong prints.
The image comes out very faint.

In your lightscribe settings there is an option to burn darker. Also you can usually set quality to best in the software your using to burn the label with and that darkens it.

As an optional method. If you burn the label then burn it a second time over the first one it darkens it right up and because of the way lightscribe works it will burn the second print in exactly the same position so you don't have to worry about it not being aligned.
