Operations flow on using a CD-R/RW disc

Unfinalization

You can cancel finalization you have done for a CD-RW disc. When you perform unfinalization, the disc space consumed by finalization will be recovered (page 58).

Formatting

You can format a disc to erase all the images inside or to use a CD-RW disc formatted by other device on the printer. Formatting will erase all the data inside the disc. When you format a disc, the disc is automatically initialized (page 59).

On writing/reading a disc with the printer

You can write data only on a CD-R/RW disc that is initialized with the printer.

You can read a CD-R/RW disc storing the data written using the printer, CD Mavica, or a ISO9660 Level 2* basis. (*The printer does not support multi-session capability. Depending on the file name or directory structures on a disc, the printer will not be able to read the disc.)

Notes

•When the CD-R/RW disc is written using the Windows XP standard CD-R/RW writing software, only the data written first (the data written in the first session) will be viewed on the printer.

•The printer uses UDF1.5 format to write data on a CD-R/RW disc. When you use your computer or other device to write data on a CD-R/RW disc on the UDF1.5 format, however, we cannot guarantee the printer to read its data.

If you use other device to edit the printer data on a CD-R/RW disc, we cannot guarantee the printer to write or read data on the disc.
