Hey all,

Got bored this arvo so I put together an instructional videio of how to create professional looking DVD's with a canon MP600

Although the guide is made with my MP600, This could be applied to any Pixma printer with dvd printing or even, god forbid, epsons.

I will probally be making a few more of these vids in the next few days to demonstrate various refilling techniques. I will also make one on how to correctly swap and install chips on the PGI-5BK and CLI-8 c/m/y carts

hope you like it!
