Using FlexWare
8
As you complete a duplication project using val-
ues that you may want to access again for a later
project, use the Save As option on the File menu
in FlexWare to choose a name and destination for
the stored file.
Similarly, using Discus, the label printing program
that works with FlexWare, you can create and
store labels for reuse—either using graphics pro
-
vided in Discus or your own imported graphics.
Clicking the Create Disc Labels option opens the
starting screen for Discus.
As you create labels for discs, store those labels
in Discus before quitting the program. You can
then open the Old Projects tab to view previously
created labels and open them for immediate use
or to modify for a new project.
USING WIZARDS
FlexWare features wizards that guide you through
the steps involved in a duplication task. If a
particular task has a wizard associated with it, you
will see a link at the top of the window labeled
Wizard. Wizards are available for these tasks:
• Create Image from Disc
• Duplicate Disc from Image
To run a wizard
1 Select Create Image from Disc or Duplicate
Disc from Image from the FlexWare menu
bar.
2 Follow the steps shown in the dialog boxes
to complete the task.
3 Once you complete the wizard, give the
project you completed a name and save the
project file if you want to recall the details for
later use.
DUPLICATING FROM DISC TO DISC
One of the simplest duplication tasks is to make
one or more disc copies from an existing master.
This procedure provides a useful means to check
your system and ensure that it is working properly.
To duplicate from disc to disc
1 Place the disc that will be the master in one
of your available DVD+RW drives. Insert one
or more blank discs in the input spindle. If
you set the Copies setting to Auto, FlexWare
will continue to make copies of the master
until all the blank discs in the input spindle
have been used.
2 Select the drive that contains the master from
the drop-down list in the Source area.
3 Choose an appropriate Read Speed from the
list of options. If you select Auto, FlexWare
will set the read speed at an appropriate
level.
4 If the master is a DVD, check the DVD check-
box.
5 If you want to also print a disc label for each
copy, select the Print checkbox and choose a
print label file with a .PRN extension.
6 In the Copies list, select the number of
duplicate discs you want to produce. If you
select Auto, FlexWare will continue to make
duplicates as long as there are available
blank discs in the input spindle.
7 Select the Write Speed from the drop-down
list. Auto allows FlexWare to determine the
optimal speed. For older media, you may
want to reduce the recording speed to match
the media capabilities. The Audio HQ (high-
quality) setting is a slower recording speed
