German term or phrase: Bedruckung
"Datenträger:

• CD und CDR (mit / ohne Bedruckung)
• DVD und DVD-R (mit / ohne Bedruckung)
• Bluray (mit / ohne Bedruckung)
• USB-Stick (mit / ohne Bedruckung)"

I know Bedruckung has been asked about before, but I'm not quite sure whether this is merely "printing" or perhaps a "printed label" that is being referred to. TIA for your assistance.

I don't think that this is about media with or without printable surfaces. These are usually called "bedruckbar" (printable).

Explanation:
If this is NOT about blanks with printable surfaces, but recorded media as a service to companies with or without their logos, names or other information printed on the surfaces (e.g., for advertising gifts or for distributing content).
