1. A method comprising:
- generating a data profile adapted to provide signals to operate an actuator to focus an optical mechanism on an optically writable label region of an optical disc, the data profile generated based on a lag time between an actuator voltage and a position of the actuator, the actuator voltage being a voltage at which peaks result within one or more SUM signals output by one or more sensors; and
,forming an image on the optically writable label region of the optical disc using the optical mechanism as has been focused by the actuator based upon the data profile generated.

Abstract
An optical focusing system is configured to generate a data profile, wherein the data profile is configured to provide signals for operation of an actuator. Application of the signals from the data profile results in focus of optics within a label region of an optical disc. An image is printed on the label region of the optical disc while the optics focus on the label region of the optical disc by applying signals to the actuator according to the data profile.
