CD/DVD printing

[Jerry]

I've seen the changes that can be made to the Canon IP4300 to make it print
on CD/DVD's on this printer sold in the US, does anyone know if there are
similar changes available for the IP4500. Once again the Canon UK version
does CD/DVD printing while the US version does not.
Thanks

I made this change to the 4300 and it works perfectly. This page lists the
4500 too so I would expect the same results:

I bought the tray from this guy:

He sent the tray immediately and also sent complete instructions, drivers,
freeware label software, excellent service. No, I do NOT have any
connection with him.

Yes, I believe that the 4500 uses the same hardware and firmware as the
4300, so you should be fine. If you do this, please report back on how it
went.
I've also bought trays from the guy in San Francisco, and they are genuine
Canon trays, excellent service too.

Alan and Dan, thanks very much for the info.
