Thanks for the update!
I am honest when i say I looked at every printer on display at Office Max 
(which is a lot) and at Best Buy too a couple times in the last twelve months 
and my routine online searches and ONLY Printers I found with CD Printing 
Capability were the premium ones.
I am glad I was WRONG. :)
