How the Neato HandiCD-R sheet is laid out
The 3 columns and 3 rows of Neato HandiCD-R labels are centred: 0.507″ of backing at each side, 3/4″ at the top and bottom.
With 3/16″ between columns and 1/4″ between rows, a print that is off by less than 0.094″ still lands on the right HandiCD-R label.
Labels cover 48 % of the page; the rest is backing.
No other sheet in LabelGrid's data (the gLabels database plus checked additions) has exactly the Neato HandiCD-R layout, so avoid "close enough" templates.
Designing for HandiCD-R disc labels
Each Neato HandiCD-R disc label is 3″ (76.2 mm) across with a 1.611″ (40.9 mm) hole, leaving a 0.694″ (17.6 mm) printable ring. Put the title above the hole and a date or track count below it; the tool centres text and keeps it off the hole.

Where the Neato HandiCD-R numbers come from
The HandiCD-R geometry has not yet been checked against Neato's published template: print the plain-paper test first. Other geometry: gLabels template database (misc-us-templates.xml). LabelGrid is not affiliated with Neato; "HandiCD-R" only names the sheet this template fits.
