IMPORTANT NOTE: When copying CD to CD at 40x or 52x speed, it is very important to use a clean, unmarked master. If there are scratches, fingerprints, dust, etc., on the master, it will slow down the recording speed. Using Audio Masters: When copying Audio masters with a large number of tracks, the system can take a few seconds to analyze the master. The reader drive will blink slowly during this process. *NOTE: The default copy speed is 52x at power up.
Copy Job Completes The COPYWRITER TOWER DUPLICATOR automatically ejects the drive trays after the copy finishes successfully. The Master disc does not eject. You can use any or all of the four recorders to make copies. The COPYWRITER TOWER DUPLICATOR ALARMS (beeps) when an error occurs with the media and/or drives. Discs will not be ejected and the error alarm beeps until you press the open tray button on the drive(s) that have failed. The drives that record correctly will eject the disc when completed.
