  I got a pixma i4300, and that does CDs just fine without tweaking. 
(hm, though I'm in Canada, which may be different to the US). Fairly 
cheap printer, though ink is expensive, and unlike the sadly-missed i960 
that preceded it, these cartridges have chips, so replacing them with 
OEM ink is a bit fiddlier. (not impossible, but it looks fiddlier than 
I'd like).
