Claims41
A system for labeling a storage media, comprising:
- means for arranging images, said images corresponding to images encoded on said storage media;
- and
- means for printing said images, coupled to said means for arranging images.
A method of labeling a storage media, comprising:
- arranging images in a memory of a computer, said arranged images corresponding to images encoded on said storage media;
- printing said arranged images onto a label;
- and
- affixing said label onto said storage media.
A label that affixes to a storage media, said label comprising:
- a first side suitable for affixing said label to said storage media;
- a second side, wherein images are printed on said second side and wherein said images correspond to images encoded on said storage media.
A storage media comprising:
- a first side which stores encoded images;
- a second side which stores images that correspond to said images encoded on said first side, wherein said images that correspond to said images encoded on said first side are printed using one of:
- a printhead,
- a laser.
A system for labeling a storage media, comprising:
- a computer for arranging images that correspond to images encoded on said storage media;
- and one of
- a printer that prints said arranged images onto one of a label and said storage media, and
- a laser that prints said arranged images onto said storage media;
- wherein said one of said printer and said laser are coupled to said computer.
One or more computer-readable media having computer-readable instructions thereon, which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to generate a file used to label a storage media, said method comprising:
- arranging images in a memory of said computer, said images corresponding to images encoded on said storage media;
- disposing a title within said arranged images based on said input of said storage media size;
- preparing a composite file of said arranged images;
- and
- transmitting said composite file to one of a print head and a laser.
A method of preparing a label for a storage media, comprising:
- arranging images in a memory of a computer, said images corresponding to images encoded on said storage media;
- and
- preparing a composite file that includes said arranged images, said composite file being adapted for storage by said computer.
