F. OVERVIEW OF OPERATION

Your new Publisher is an automated, precision device intended for continuous-duty publishing of discs. The following is a description of the complete process of duplicating and printing a CD/DVD job on your Publisher:

1.Up to 20 blank discs may be loaded at one time into the Input Bin.

2.The Publisher's integrated Robotic Disc Transporter will first check your recorder drive for a disc by attempting to"pick" from the recorder. Then, the Robotic Disc Transporter will pick a disc from the Input Bin.

3.The Recorder Tray opens automatically and the Robotic Disc Transporter places a disc into the recorder. After the disc is placed in the recorder, the Robotic Disc Transporter checks the input stack to "see" if two discs were picked.

4.The Recorder Tray then automatically shuts. If a disc does not record properly (meaning that all or part of that disc is not recordable), the Robotic Disc Transporter picks it out of the CD Tray and sends it to the Output Bin.

5.The Recorder is now writing to the disc. If you were to fully record a CD with data, audio, video or music (650 MB), recording time is about 3 ½ minutes each. A full DVD records in about 7-15 minutes depending on the speed of the media to which you are recording. Most jobs don't fill the entire disc, so recording time is usually less than this. After recording, the Recorder Tray opens automatically. The Robotic Disc Transporter will lift the disc out of the Recorder Tray. The Recorder Tray will close, and the Printer Tray will open. The Robotic Disc Transporter will lower the disc into the Printer Tray, and the Printer Tray will then automatically close.

6.If publishing more than one disc, the Robotic Disc Transporter will load the Recorder Drive with a blank disc from the Input Bin to start recording the next round.
