EPSON AcuLaser AL-C1100: can it print on disks?

I have a LaCie d2 LightScribe unit which writes on LS disks pretty good.

I also own an EPSON AcuLaser AL-C1100 laser printer and I wonder if it's capable of writing on CD's and DVD's.

Does disk printing require special units in order to work? Oo

Sorry for the stupid questions, but I'm quite a n00b in this.

No, laser printers cannot print on discs. There is a vaguely related technology called “thermal printing” for discs, but this is mainly 1 or 3 color labeling and not “photo quality”. Only inkjet printing on printable media will produce photo quality, and the printer must have that specific function.
