Anyone use Epson inkjet printers to print on DVD's

What constitues a printable CD? A matte finish? Is the finish surface another way for the manufacturers to make more money? I'm going to be buying a printer that prints on DVDs/CDs and would like to know if I have to search for specialized blank media.
 
I may be nuts, since I don't own a CD/DVD capable printer yet, but all of the DVD's and CD's that I have burned and labeled with a simple magic marker have held their labels without any problems with moisture (I tried to smudge them my licking a finger and thumbing them, all makes and manufacturers of the media) and therefore am curious, are we being misled by the need to have a "printable media" by the manufacturers?
 
the R300 is just the R200 with an added card reader + a little LCD screen to preview pics on. It's not any faster.

I love my printer, it givesgood results and the media isn't too expensive. I ordered a 100 pack of Prodisc printable cd's for 25 bucks shipped.
 
The main reason I'd choose the R200 is because it's 1/2 the price of the R300. I don't care about the media slots one bit. I'd never print a picture that way anyway. I like to see my images on screen and be able to adjust them in photoshop before I print them so a reader is useless.
