lightscribe labelling software

Just purchased new lacie d2 DVD burner with lightscribe software.
Having purchased the correct discs I have tried to burn a label onto the disc.
Lacie tells me that I need to update the software in order for it to work.
I have downloaded the software and it has appeared as 'lightscribe.pkg.
When I install the 'pkg' onto the hard drive it does not update the application, i.e. it remains as version 1.1 instead of version 1.4136.1 which is on the 'lightscibe.pkg'.
What am I doing wrong?

The two packages available from the net, do not show the version you are quoting!? I'm assuming the simple labeler package is the one you are referring to. Make sure you have the latest version of their system software as well.

System > lightscribe_1.10.13.1.pkg.tar
Labeler > lightScribeSimpleLabeler.pkg-1.4.128.1.tar

Probably not much help, but the best I can come up with...

OSX System software needs to be 10.3.9 or later.

Found the answer! Lightscribe only supports greyscale/black and white. So if you want colour save your money on Lightscribe discs and get yourself a labelling kit.
