What is the process of ordering UV printed MiniDisc?

When ordering custom UV printed MiniDiscs please send the images/artwork to our contact email address and include the order number.

The UV printing will not affect the operation of the MiniDisc.

For front printing (100% coverage) the image must be at least 1684x1614 pixels in size and we prefer the PNG format to maintain accurate color info.

For printing on the back of the MiniDisc we can provide a template to make sure the MiniDisc will still be fully operational.

For additional questions please send them to our contact email address or use the Chat option on this page.

My MiniDisc story

I restarted my minidisc journey in 2020 during the covid stay at home period.

First action was to buy the minidisc player model I had over 20 years ago (Sharp MD-MS100).

After that my MD device collection has been growing steadily and now own over 200 portable devices (most of them in working condition) and about 10 mini audio sets.

Going back to MD it also made me rebuild my audio collection (then on vinyl) but now on MD. After spending money on label printers, I never was really satisfied with the outcome. \

This made me decide to look for other options to make MD closer to the vinyl album covers from the time of physical media. What I ended up with was a beast (and $$$) of a UV printer being able to print directly on the MD media.

This required learning new skills but after much experimenting I’m happy with the outcome and have been fortunate to be able to recreate many of my favorite vinyl records on MD.

Having many portable MD players I ran into the same issues as most of my fellow MD nerds related to batteries. I have been working on some options (mostly using USB C) for either in device charging or to allow using a USB C power bank (we all carry today) for hours and hours of MD playback joy.

I will soon be sharing these new and exciting new options.
