A High-Quality Label That Performs As You Expect
Avery disc labels are carefully designed and manufactured for superior performance. The paper stock accepts laser printing ink perfectly and with accurate color values. No ink smudging. The pressure sensitive adhesive is applied evenly with no coverage gaps and has superior bonding characteristics to disc surfaces. No annoying static attraction is generated when r...

Love the labels BUT . . .
I love these labels, however, I too can't seem to get them to tear off (remove) correctly at the tabs either

These labels made it far easier to print!
The labels were the prefect item for my needs. Anyone who has printed CD or DVD covers understands how difficult it can be to align them properly for printing. Using the correct Avery template with the CD labels made printing them much easier. I will buy more labels in the future, because of these products!

CD Labels
These are very easy to make using the template provided by the company. The labels go onto the CDs very easily and do not cause any problems to the CDs.

Ok
These seem to be my only choice now - so they have to work. The big package is more economical than the smaller ones. The Staples brand labels were less expensive and worked as well or better.

Dependable
Products carried by Avery for CDs (e.g., labels, jewel cases, "wallets") have become my go-to supplies. Although Avery-brand products are often more expensive than those of their competitors, their quality & dependability are top notch. Other brands have proven inconsistent in quality (often damaged in shipping). I maintain a personal library of several thousand comp...

The quality of this product has drastically changed for the worse.
I am not sure when the change happened with their matte cd labels, but in the past when I would print with avery CD labels, the ink would print very clear with vivid colors, but now with the newer labels the ink seems to spread on the labels making the images look blurry with dull colors. It's like I am ...

Response from Staples :
Hello, thank you for your review. I am so sorry to hear that these CD labels did not work for you. We do make changes to our products over time, but I am not sure if this product was affected. I've found that adjusting the Paper/Media Type to Labels can help with smearing. Does your printer offer a Labels setting? If these labels still have a smear issue, please reach out to our Care Team with your order number and a picture of this issue (if possible) so we can review for your replacement. You can chat with a Live Agent on avery.com/help or you can call us at: 800-462-8379. Our open hours for both services: 6am-5pm PT Mon-Fri. Thank you.

Easy to create labels!
I would prefer that Avery would return to offering product that combines a CD label with a Jewel Box label on the same page. Instead of 2 CD labels per page or 2 Jewel Box labels per page. It would be more cost effective for the consumer to combine the labels.

Difficult to Use
Bought these recently and was very disappointed with them. There are tabs on both sides of the label that are supposed to tear off after the label has been placed. The tabs do not tear off evenly. They either leave a ridge that must be trimmed with a razor or they tear onto the surface of the label in an unsightly manner. Lots of excellent Avery products, but this p...

Very disappointed with quality
This is the first review I have ever written about anything but I am close to tears. I started my project with Avery Product 8691 that I had purchased several years ago and was very pleased with the vivid colors using my HP ink jet printer. When I ran out I made sure to order the exact same Avery Product 8691 and the package looks identical, but they are not the same la...

CD labels
Template for Word was off; Avery tech recommended using their software; that was even worse. Finally spent a couple hours moving margins in Word to get the image right. Avery also doesn’t appear to have their label positioning tool available so you are stuck using an old jewel case to position the labels on the CD.

Wrong Labels
I have used Avery Labels before. Now I can't find the ones I used. I want to Identify my vacation videos like I did last year. Everything buy are for an office. I build my own format using my own photos one at a time. What is the Label Number that will satisfy my needs?
