System Requirements 
The Microboards CX-1 Disc Publisher has the following minimum requirements and compatibilities: 
Supported Operating Systems 
Microsoft Windows 2000 with SP4 or Windows XP with SP2. 
Processor 
Pentium 4 (or equivalent) CPU, running at 2.0 GHz or faster. 
System Memory 
Minimum 512 MB of system memory. 
Hard Drive Space 
Approximately 40MB of free space is required for the applications and drivers. For storing disc 
images, temporary space is needed for the full disc dimension. That could be up to about 800MB for 
CD or about 5 GB for DVD. 
A separate internal 7200 RPM hard drive is recommended for storing your data. Using the same 
hard drive as the operating system can cause the system to perform slowly.

USB 2.0 is required. 
Assembly and Installation 
Assembly Instructions 
CX-1 Disc Publisher Assembly 
Remove the CX-1 Disc Publisher system from the shipping box and confirm you received all of the 
items. 
Place the CX-1 Disc Publisher on a stable, flat surface. You will need 
room both in front and behind the system, as discs will be accessed 
from both locations. 
Install the 2 long input bin posts into the input hopper by screwing them 
down onto the screw mounts on the left side of the input hopper. Install 
the wide post on the right side of the input hopper. 
Install the output bin: 
•  Align the two holes in the output bin with the holes on the Front of the printer (numbers 1 and 2). 
•  Secure the output bin with the two thumb screws. 
•  The output bin should now be securely in place. 
•  Next, slide in the 100 disc output spindle into place. 
The Output Bin is designed to hang over the front edge of your 
work surface. 
Plug in the PF-3 Print Factory with the AC power cord provided.
