Using Easy CD Creator Basic

See the Easy CD Creator Basic documentation for instructions on how to use the program, information about different recording techniques, and CD media limitations. The Easy CD Creator Basic documentation is located in the Microsoft® Windows® XP Help and Support Center (see "Finding Help Information" on page 32). The documentation is also provided on the Dell Dimension ResourceCD, which is included with your computer. Each Easy CD Creator Basic project program also has thorough online help files.

Using Blank CD-R Discs or Blank CD-RW Discs

Your CD-RW drive writes to two different types of recording media—CD-R and CD-RW discs. Use blank CD-R (CD-Recordable) disks to record music or permanently store data files. After creating a CD-R disc, you cannot write to that disc again without changing your method of recording (see the Roxio documentation for more information). Use blank CD-RW (CD-ReWritable) discs when you want to write, erase, rewrite, and update your files onto CDs.

Helpful Tips

•You must use the Easy CD Creator Basic project programs to copy and record all music and data CDs. You can use Windows Explorer to drag and drop files to a CD-R or CD-RW disc only after you first use DirectCD to format the disc.

•You must use CD-R discs to burn music CDs that you want to play in regular stereos. CD-RW discs do not play in most home or car stereos.

•If you want to copy files from the Internet or files from a floppy or Zip drive, copy those files to your hard drive first, and then burn your CD. Your CD-RW drive requires a steady stream of data to properly record. Direct Internet downloads, floppy drives, and Zip drives may not be able to provide a steady data stream to your CD-RW drive.

•Music MP3 files can be played only on MP3 players or on computers that have MP3 software installed.

•Ensure that you set the sampling rate to at least 128 Kbps when you burn MP3 files to a CD. Otherwise, recording errors may occur.

2300 specifications

The Dell 2300 series is a versatile and efficient line of printers designed to meet the demands of small to medium-sized businesses. Known for their reliability and performance, these printers are built to handle heavy workloads while delivering high-quality prints with exceptional ease of use.

One of the standout features of the Dell 2300 series is its fast printing speed. Capable of producing up to 30 pages per minute, this printer ensures a smooth workflow, allowing users to handle large print jobs with minimal downtime. The first page is typically printed within seconds, which significantly enhances productivity in busy office environments.

The Dell 2300 series also boasts impressive print resolution, reaching up to 1200 x 1200 dpi. This high resolution guarantees sharp text and clear images, making it suitable for producing professional documents, marketing materials, and even intricate graphics. The printer employs advanced laser technology, which not only enhances print quality but also reduces the likelihood of smudging or fading over time.

In terms of connectivity, the Dell 2300 offers various options to accommodate different networking needs. It supports USB 2.0 for direct connections to computers, along with Ethernet capability for networked environments. This makes it easy to share the printer among multiple users, facilitating seamless collaboration and improving overall efficiency.

The Dell 2300 series is also equipped with a range of user-friendly features, including a simple control panel with clear buttons and an intuitive display. This allows users to navigate settings with ease and troubleshoot minor issues without requiring extensive technical knowledge. Additionally, the printer supports automatic duplexing, enabling users to print on both sides of the paper, which not only saves resources but also promotes eco-friendly practices.

Another significant aspect of the Dell 2300 is its toner efficiency. The printer uses high-capacity toner cartridges, which yield a considerable number of pages before needing replacement. This efficiency reduces the overall cost of ownership and minimizes the frequency of maintenance, making it an economical choice for businesses.

In summary, the Dell 2300 series offers a range of features designed to enhance productivity and simplify printing tasks. With its fast printing speeds, high-quality output, versatile connectivity options, and user-friendly design, it is an excellent addition to any office environment seeking reliability and performance.
