LabelFlash is a technology which allows users to burn custom motifs or images onto DVD media, introduced by NEC in December 2005 (Yamaha's DiscT@2 patent). This is similar to the LightScribe technology invented by Hewlett-Packard earlier.

- The resolution is 1000 dpi.
- Uses up to 256 shades in the image.
- Monochromatic with 4 colour technology in development
- Labeling process takes 7 minutes at minimum depending on the resolution.
- Burning images on the top side of a disc requires specialized media.
- Specialised Labelflash discs use 0.6 mm thick top coating to avoid fading of image over time, and to protect from scratches.
- Discs are blue on top, thus providing greater contrast with the printed image.
- Current media is approximately twice the price of the similar Lightscribe technology; around €1 per DVD
- DiskT@2 is a part of Labelflash technology — burning on bottom side (data side) of disc area which is not used by data is possible with any DVD±R media.
Nero 7.0.2.8 and newer versions support this technology. All full versions of Nero 8 support Labelflash, but Nero 7 only supports it with OEM versions bundled with Labelflash-capable recorders and with Nero 7 Premium. For reasons that are not entirely clear, North American purchasers of Nero 7 (Ultra Edition) are not entitled to Labelflash or DiscT@2 support, even though the exact same software sold to European customers (Nero 7 Premium) includes both Labelflash and DiscT@2 functionality. The only difference between Nero 7 Premium and Nero 7 Ultra Edition appears to be the inclusion of (or lack of, respectively) support for Labelflash and DiscT@2.
Hardware
tone: date=January 2008 The NEC ND-3550A, ND-3551A, ND-4550A, ND-4551A all share the same hardware but only the ND-3551A and ND-4551A are sold with Labelflash support. In addition NEC sold the ND-4571A DVD burning Labelflash drive and also the Sony NEC Optiarc drives AD-7173, AD-7543, AD-7633 and AD-7913 supporting Labelflash writing.
The Liggy and Dee team produce many aftermarket firmware updates for various optical drives, including these NEC models. In early 2006, a tool was released by another party to update the boot information on these drives to enable Labelflash support. Because of possible legal issues that may arise from enabling patented Labelflash technology on these drives, the team has stated on their website that while containing the EXACT SAME HARDWARE, - "Please note that it is IMPOSSIBLE to enable DVD-RAM support on 3550 and 3551 drives or Labelflash on 3550 or 4550 drives by using (our) drive converter." There is however a site that claims their tool can do that, but does not guarantee it will work for everyone, and usage is at your own risk and it voids warranty.
