Editors' Review

by Download.com staff / February 27, 2009

Although not at the top of its class, this free CD-label creator gets the job done. Upon launch, the attractive, tabbed interface offers you several templates for creating CD labels, jewel cases, and DVD booklets. After selecting your design, you can add any images you'd like, though the program's library of included backgrounds and pictures is extremely small. If your selected graphic doesn't fit exactly, you can simply drag it around until it reaches the desired size. When adding text, you must reposition each line by moving a small box around, as the included templates don't have predesigned entries for adding track or artist information. Also, though you can change font size and style, it's curious that you can't bold or italicize any text. Still, EZ Label Xpress Lite is totally free and doesn't disable the printing function as many competitors do, making it a quality pick for those who need to create very basic CD and DVD labels.

Publisher's Description

From Meritline Media: EZ Label Xpress is an exciting CD/DVD label and DVD-insert design and print application that allows you to make multipurpose labels in a simple way. Starting from existing label templates, it offers you the possibility of adding--in interactive ways--backgrounds, images, and text and finally printing according to various page layouts. EZ Label Xpress offers support for CD- or DVD-label printing of various shapes and sizes; it also supports CD- and DVD-case-insert printing. The designs you make also may be saved in files you can later edit or print. Designing and printing your own labels has never been so easy.

"Good and ease tool"

Barcode-EasierSoft July 18, 2017 / Version: EZ Label Xpress Lite 2.5

2017-07-18 06:28:55 | By Barcode-EasierSoft

Pros

All templates are pre-defined, you just need to select a template with the background and picture you want, add the text you need to mark on the CD or DVD, then print the label, it suitable for Avery's CD/DVD label paper.

Cons

I haven't cons.

"Not worth it."

dvfox5 April 17, 2015 / Version: EZ Label Xpress Lite 2.5

2015-04-17 13:22:58 | By dvfox5

Pros

Has some template backgrounds
Offers optional printing patterns

Cons

VERY limited editing.
No copying one disc design to paste on the second disc outline on the same sheet
No centering of text
Print preview makes absolutely no sense -- not even accurate
Functionality is terrible.

Summary

I got what I paid for -- about $10 worth of junk software. Either that, or I don't have the proper driver, but where is the manufacturer's website? Can't find it. I did manage to use it, but it was a struggle and very frustrating.

"Simple to use"

Enders03 July 11, 2013 / Version: EZ Label Xpress Lite 2.5

2013-07-11 16:20:49 | By Enders03

Pros

It does what it is intended to do. It took me less than five minutes to figure this program out. VERY easy to use and I explained it in the summary.

Cons

It is very limited on what you can do but it does the job. Read summary for directions on how to use this program.

Summary

If you want to jazz it up with your own background image all you have to do is click the "Background" tab. You will see a file tab next to the word Gallery, click it. It will then open a file for you to select any photo you have on your PC. Now, if you want something other than a photo, I suggest you make one or have someone make one for you. I personally use Pain.NET which is a free program that creates images and works just as good as any other.

Basically, create your own image for the background and open it via the "Background" tab. All of these complaints about personalization can be solved by creating your own image for the disk. This program just allows you to use the template and attach the already created images from your PC as a label.

Step one: Open Program

Step Two: Select Template

Step Three: Choose a background. This can be any image on your PC. Click the 'Background' tab and then click the 'File' button. Find the image on your PC and click 'Open'

Step Four: Image tab is essentially the same as the Background tab.

Step Five: Add Text if you need to. Simply click the Text button and drag it to whatever location you prefer. The Format button will allow you to change the font style, size and whatever.

Step Six: PRINTING! You see blue circles in the print preview screen to the right. Click the blue circles to unlock them and you will be able to see the outline of the CD/DVD. If it looks good, PRINT!

"Excellent Results"

Jerry846 February 12, 2012 / Version: EZ Label Xpress Lite 2.5

2012-02-12 16:57:45 | By Jerry846

Pros

Did a project for my brother and he loved it. A quote from an email from him, "Was really impressed with how they turned out. You did a really nice job on them. Thanks again
Once I got the hang of it, the five CDs and two DVDs were a snap to do. Even incorporated one of my pictures as a back ground. Was/is fun to use.

Cons

Choices are a little limited for back ground, titleing and listing of songs, but, for free, you can not beat it.

Summary

Beautiful results, professionally looking, and fun to use. At this point I see no reason to purchase a "complicated" program when this more than meets my needs. Now, I'm looking for reasons to play with it more.

"Free version is not very good."

Rucca October 03, 2011 / Version: EZ Label Xpress Lite 2.5

2011-10-03 19:05:01 | By Rucca

Pros

Don't know

Cons

Does not do light scribe or allow you to import your own photos for labels

Summary

Seems as though they don't want to give you much so that you will need to buy their upgraded version.

"I don't waste time with toys..."

mmitchell_houston August 17, 2011 / Version: EZ Label Xpress Lite 2.5

2011-08-17 18:21:55 | By mmitchell_houston

Pros

I suppose it would work for some people who don't need very much.

Cons

I needed it to print a full-bleed label and couldn't. If it can do this, I couldn't figure out how to do it. As such, it was a waste of my time.

"Wouldn't install in XP"

Spider51 January 21, 2011 / Version: EZ Label Xpress Lite 2.5

2011-01-21 09:31:57 | By Spider51

Pros

Never got a chance to find out.

Cons

Never got a chance to find out.

Summary

Contacted their customer services people with details of the error message; they asked for a purchase order number, and when I explained I had downloaded for free from download.com I heard nothing more...

gldtkn77 January 20, 2011 / Version: EZ Label Xpress Lite 2.5

2011-01-20 13:03:05 | By gldtkn77

Pros

Seemed nice at first. Seemed user friendly at first. But then...

Cons

Automatically defaulted to Bold type face no matter what I did. Extremely frustrating. Did not have the time to waste on this useless software.

Summary

Removed the program after an hour. Don't bother messing with it.
