Can I rewrite a LightScribe label the way some CDs and DVDs can be rewritten?

HP LightScribe - frequently asked questions
No. Once burned, a LightScribe label is final. The software's preview screen lets you see what your label will look like before it is burned. While you can't erase text or graphics from your label, you can easily add more content to a label that is already burned.

Why do labeled LightScribe DVDs look different from LightScribe-labeled CDs?

Lightscribe media APR media: Lightscribe CDR, Lightscribe dv...
The difference in appearance of labeled LightScribe DVDs and CDs stems from the difference in how CDs and DVDs are made in general. DVDs have a second plastic layer, which CDs don't have, that creates a kind of "plastic sandwich" around the reflective layer on which data is burned. This additional plastic layer separates the reflective layer from the LightScribe coating on the surface of the disc.

How do CDs and DVDs differ?

Frequently Asked Questions
Though a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) looks like a CD, it is actually two "half-discs" bonded together. It can contain data on one or both sides (dual-layer). Because of smaller pits and lands, as well as dual layers, DVDs can hold 7 to 25 times more information than a CD. A DVD can hold cinema-like video, better-than-CD audio, and computer data.

How should I clean my LightScribe-labeled discs?

Lightscribe media APR media: Lightscribe CDR, Lightscribe dv...
The best way to clean the label side of the disc is with a soft, lint-free cloth. There are cleaning kits available on the market, or you can clean discs with water. The white powder you may see on some labeled discs results from crystallization of the label-side coating. It is not harmful and can easily be removed with a water-dampened cloth. Wiping the disc with a damp cloth will not harm the label.

What is the difference between CDs and DVDs?

SpinSmart Software | Frequently Asked Questions
Generally, people think of CDs holding music and DVDs holding movies. On the computer, CDs and DVDs have much more versatile uses. In the case of most of our products, we use both types of discs to store data files, like books or Old Time Radio episodes. The key difference in the two is the amount of files that can be stored on a disc. CD media (discs) can hold up to 700 Megabytes of data. DVD media can hold approximately 4.5 Gigabytes of data (about 7 CDs).
