You can use a marker to label your DVD-R (or DVD+R). Simply make sure you are obviously not marking on the side of the disc that you are burning on. If it's a double-sided DVD, then you're obviously not going to mark on either side.
Also make sure you do not use a sharp tip marker which may damage or scratch the surface of the DVD. A standard Sharpie marker should do the trick.

Write carefully with a non-bleeding marker. Don't use a pen/pencil because this is likely to damage the disc. Don't use a paint-like marker either because that may cause your drive to malfunction (raised markings, up above the disc's surface).
