HP’s super multi drive offers high speeds and double-layer DVD,¹

and it’s LightScribe Version 1.2-ready for high-contrast LightScribe 

labeling.² It lets users easily preserve, edit and share up to 8.5 GB 

of video, photos, and multimedia presentations on one double-layer 

disc – and quickly store, back up and transport files on DVDs and 

CDs. The dvd840e records double-layer DVDs at up to 8X, recordable 

DVDs at up to 16X, rewritable DVDs at up to 8X, and DVD-RAM at 

up to 5X.

LightScribe is the innovative new disc-labeling system that gives
CDs and DVDs a neat, professional look without ink, pens, or paper

labels. With LightScribe, you simply burn your data, flip the disc
over, and burn a precise, silkscreen-like label directly onto your

LightScribe CD or DVD.

   slideshows, back up music and data, create personalized label

   designs, and more.
