Welcome!  
Our duplicator is a reliable, high performance, high speed,  
standalone manual tower duplicator. With its professional industrial  
design and simple beginner user interface, it will make your  
duplicating experience easier than ever.  
******************************************************  
Before you start:  
Before you start using this duplicator, please read the following to  
ensure proper operation:  
1. Important Notice:  
The type of duplicator you purchase will determine the type of discs  
you are able to copy. For example, if you purchased a CD only  
duplicator, then you will only be able to copy onto recordable CD  
formats. If you purchased a DVD duplicator, then you can copy on  
to recordable DVD and CD formats. If you purchased a Blu-Ray  
duplicator, then you can copy onto recordable Blu-Ray, DVD, and  
CD formats. If you have a Blu-Ray capable duplicator, the term  
Blu-Ray can be substituted for CD or DVD within the text of this  
user manual.  
2. Duplicator Limitations:  
The duplicator will not copy any CD, DVD, or Blu-Ray disc that  
have Copy Protection encoded inside. Typically, the movies you  
purchase or rent from the store will contain copy protection.  
In addition to the copy protection limitation, the duplicator cannot  
copy across formats. This means that you cannot copy a DVD  
master onto a recordable CD. In addition, you cannot copy the same  
formats if the discs have different maximum capacity limitations.  
This means that you cannot copy a single layer DVD or Blu-Ray  
onto a double/dual layer DVD or Blu-Ray or vice versa. The  
recordable blanks must be the same format and maximum capacity  
as the master disc you intend toduplicate.  
- 1 -  
 
3. Temperature Warning:  
If the duplicator was stored in a location where the temperature  
dropped below 32°F (0°C) within the past 24 hours, please leave the  
duplicator in a warm room with temperatures at least 65°F (19°C)  
for 4 hours prior to powering it on for the first time. Failure to do so  
may cause irreparable harm and prevent the duplicator from  
functioning.  
4. External Connection Warning:  
If you have an external connection installed in your duplicator, you  
will see the USB/Firewire sticker(s) on your writer front drive  
panel(s). In order to operate the duplicator solely as a standalone  
unit (no connection to the computer), you have to make sure all of  
the USB/Firewire connection(s) are off. If by any chance, the  
USB/Firewire connection(s) are on, please refer to “Setup Guide:  
Setup IEEE USB 2.0 / 1394 Firewire device(s)”  
5. Maintenance:  
It is very important to operate and keep the duplicator in a dust free,  
clean environment since dust is the number 1 killer for CD/DVD  
recording devices. Failure to do so may severely damage your  
duplicator. We strongly suggest you place an Air Cleaner next to the  
duplicator and constantly use the Air Duster (Can Air) to clear off  
any dust on the surface of the duplicator.  
Do not try to use the Air Duster to clean the  
duplicator while the reader/writer trays are open. In  
doing so, you may inadvertently blow dust into the  
recording device and damage the recording device.  
6. Proper Shutdown:  
To avoid possible system failures, you need to shutdown the  
duplicator properly. To shutdown the duplicator, you need to press  
“>>” button to “16. Shutdown” and follow instructions on the screen  
to shutdown the duplicator properly. Turning off your duplicator  
without performing this function will increase the risk of damaging

Tutorial Guide:  
I. Make Disc-to-Disc Copies  
This process will copy your master disc into several blank discs  
simultaneously. However, due to its simultaneous nature, a good  
conditioned master disc and lower recording speed is necessary  
for high success rate and good quality duplications.  
When you turn on your duplicator, after it has booted up, you  
should see the following signifying your duplicator is ready.  
DUPLICATOR 1.00  
1. COPY  
1. Make sure the Master Reading Source is set to the 1st  
Tray (Reading Tray).  
It is very important to make sure that your current Master  
Reading Source is the top tray in order to avoid unnecessary  
error messages. To check the Master Reading Source, please

c. The Counter Selection Menu will let you choose how many  
copies you want to make for your project. This Counter  
Selection feature will allow the duplicator to count the  
number of copies you’ve made and prompt you when the  
desired number of copies has been made.  
You can select “No Counter” if you prefer to copy continuously with  
no interruption. (It will still count the number of copies, but it will  
not notify you when to stop.) To select the “No Counter”, simply  
press “>>” button when you see the screen above. Then skip below

enter/input a 4-digit number. If you are planning to specify a number  
that is less than 4 digits, please fill the leading spaces with “0”s (any  
leading “0” will be skipped). An example of that 4-digit number  
could be “0234” (Two hundred and thirty four), or “0010” (ten).  
Remember, the beginning “0”s are skipped, therefore “0010” means  
“10”, which is the number 10.  
- 7 -  
 
To enter the number, you need to use UP or DOWN button to select  
the number for each digit and use “>>” or “<<” button to move the  
cursor position right or left, once you’ve finished, move the cursor to  
“OK” and press “>>”. For example, if I want to specify a counter  
value of 21 (twenty one). The 4-digit value would be “0021”. To  
input the desired quantity, please do the following:  
Make sure the cursor is located at the first position:  
Specify Counter:

If either one of the ABOVE 2 screens are displayed for  
more than 2 minutes, please check your Master Disc or  
Blank Discs for quality.  
d. Please allow 5-10 seconds for the duplicator to detect your  
Master Disc and Blank Discs as well. After your Master Disc  
and Blank Discs have been recognized, then you shall see the  
following screen:  
Preparing...  
7 Disc Detected, Go?  
*The “7” indicates there are 7 discs recognized by  
the writer tray. Actual quantity may be different  
depending on your machine.  
By default, the “Auto Start” setting is set to “Auto”.  
For example, if your duplicator has detected 3 blank  
discs and didn’t detect any additional blank discs  
within 30 seconds, then the duplication will start  
automatically.  
- 9 -  
 
Once the number of blank discs you inserted  
matches the number of discs detected on the screen.  
Then press “>>” (if you are not using Auto Start or  
wish to speed up the process) to confirm and the  
following Processing screen will appear.  
Processing...  
Please Wait  
If the number of blank discs you inserted doesn’t  
match the number of discs detected on the screen,  
please give 10-15 seconds for the duplicator to  
recognize all of your blank discs.  
e. After 2 or 3 seconds of processing time, the following Copy  
Progress Screen will appear.

progress of the duplication.  
“0/21” indicates you have a  
project size of 21 copies and  
you have made 0 copies so far.  
“0” indicates that you have  
made 0 copies so far.  
It is normal to see the progress indicator stays at 0-  
10% and 100% for approximately 30 seconds for CD  
duplication and up to 1 minute for DVD duplication.  
That is caused by the initializing and finalizing stage.  
- 10 -  
 
Once the duplication run is completed, the successful copies  
will be ejected and you shall see the following screen:  
PASS 7 FAIL 0( 7)  
Waiting for Blanks

“PASS 7” indicates that you’ve  
just made 7 successful copies.  
“FAIL 0” indicates that you  
have no failure in this run.  
“7” indicates that you’ve  
successfully copied 7 copies so  
far.  
Next, refill more blank media to continue making more  
copies, or you can press “<<” to terminate your project and  
go back to the main menu.  
If you’ve specified a counter value for your project and your  
project is completed, you shall see the following screen:  
21 Disc Copied  
Press OK to Finish  
If you see above message, you can press “>>” to go back to  
main menu.  
If you enabled the counter and the number of discs  
you have inserted is more than what you requested,  
you will receive a message regarding you have  
inserted more discs than what you need. You can  
continue to copy or you can eject the extras.  
If you happen to have any failed discs (bad copy), the  
failed disc(s) will not be ejected automatically. You  
need to manually eject them and throw them away if  
they are write once recordable disc(s).

Tutorial Guide:  
II. Make Hard Drive(HDD)-to-Disc Copies (For Duplicator w/  
HDD installed)  
Copying from the Hard Drive is the best way to make copies.  
Overall, there are 4 benefits to copying from the Hard Drive:  
i. Performance – Duplicating from the Hard Drive will be  
able to boost the DVD duplication speed to 8x or above.  
ii. Stability – Duplicating from Hard Drive will stabilize the  
duplication process compared to the Disc to Disc  
duplicating.  
iii. Durability – Hard Drive is a much better storage device  
than DVD recordable discs. First of all, DVD recordable  
discs are composed of chemical materials tend to degrade  
over a period of time while Hard Drives are made of  
magnetic disks which will last over 100 years. Secondly,  
DVD recordable discs are often exposed and can very  
easily be scratched on its surface, while Hard Drives are  
covered with metal and mounted inside the duplicator.  
iv. Convenience – With your master discs stored inside the  
Hard Drive, you can have access to each one easily. There  
is no need to carry your master discs; they are all stored  
inside the duplicator.  
If your duplicator has a Hard Drive installed, a partition will be  
created whenever you begin to load to a new partition. The  
capacity of the created partition will be the same as the size of  
your master disc rounded up to the next Gigabyte.  
The number of partitions the hard drive can hold is determined  
by the capacity of your hard drive and the size of the partitions  
you created.  
- 12 -  
 
For example, if you have an 80GB Hard Drive with a system  
capacity of 74GB.* You can load 74 CDs or 19 DVDs (given a  
4GB average capacity).  
*There are many factors that could contribute to the capacity  
difference between the advertised capacity and the actual  
capacity:  
1. Hard Drive Manufactures use conversion rate of 1GB = 1  
Billion Bytes or 1000^3 Bytes. However, most Operating  
Systems, including our Duplication System use standard  
conversion rate of 1GB = 1.074 Billion Bytes or 1024^3  
Bytes. Therefore, for an advertised 80GB Hard Drive (80  
Billion Bytes), the Duplication System capacity is actually  
74.5 Billion Bytes (74.5GB).  
2. In addition, we round off all fractions of a GB to the lower  
whole number. That means for a hard drive that has a 74.5GB  
system capacity, we only recognize and utilize 74GB.  
The following steps will show you how to load your master disc  
into the installed Hard Drive as a partition and copy the stored  
partition onto blank discs. This process is recommended for mass  
volume production.  
How to make copies from the Hard Drive?

III. Select the Duplication Speed  
This process will allow you to adjust the duplication speed  
subject to your various needs.  
By default, the duplication speed will be set to the optimal  
speed. However, under some circumstances, you might want to  
lower down the duplication speed. Those circumstances are as  
follows:  
Poor Blank Media Quality – When your media quality is  
not good, lowering down the duplication speed is  
necessary to make good copies.  
Poor Master Disc Quality – If your master disc  
condition is not good, lowering down the duplication  
speed will reduce the failure rates greatly.  
Duplication Quality – Overall, the lower the speed, the  
higher the quality of your duplicates. If you have time, it  
is a good choice to lower down the speed to produce the  
best quality duplicates.  
When you turn on your duplicator, after it has booted up, you  
should see the following signifying your duplicator is ready.

IV. Select the Master Reading Source  
When you try to make a copy, you need to specify where the  
master disc is. Is it in the Reader tray? Or is it an Image inside  
the Hard Drive? This tutorial will show you how to change the  
Master Reading Source to satisfy your needs.  
Basically, there are 3 scenarios that require you to select the  
Master Reading Source.  
Disc-to-Disc copy (Copy from 1st Tray) – This is the case  
when you would normally make copies on the fly. You  
need to set the “Reader” as your Master Reading Source.  
Hard Drive-to-Disc copy (if Hard Drive installed) – If you  
want to make copies from your Hard Drive Image, you  
need to select the source as “Hard Drive”.  
There are four benefits to copy from Hard Drive:  
i. Performance – Duplicating form the Hard Drive will  
be able to boost the DVD duplication speed to 8x or  
above.  
ii. Stability – Duplicating from Hard Drive will stabilize  
the duplication process compared to the Disc to Disc  
duplicating.  
iii. Durability – Hard Drive is a much better storage  
device than DVD recordable discs. First of all, DVD  
recordable discs are composed of chemical materials  
tend to degrade over a period of time while Hard  
Drives are made of magnetic disks which will last  
over 100 years. Secondly, DVD recordable discs are  
often exposed and can very easily be scratched on its  
surface, while Hard Drives are covered with metal  
and mounted inside the duplicator.  
- 27 -  
 
iv. Convenience – With your master discs stored inside  
the Hard Drive, you can have access to each one  
easily. There is no need to carry your master discs;  
they are all stored inside the duplicator.  
Disc-to-Disc copy (Copy from 2nd Tray) – This is the case  
when your master disc is full of scratches. You would need  
to use the Writer Tray as your Master Reading Source to  
make a copy and use the new copy as your new master to  
make more copies.  
When you turn on your duplicator, after it has booted up, you  
should see the following signifying your duplicator is ready.

V.  
Load Master Disc onto the Hard Drive  
In order to copy from the Hard Drive, you are required to load your  
master disc onto a hard drive partition.  
The number of partitions the hard drive can hold is determined  
by the capacity of your hard drive and the size of the partitions  
you created.  
For example, if you have an 80GB Hard Drive with a system  
capacity of 74GB.* You can load 74 CDs or 19 DVDs (given a  
4GB average capacity).  
*There are many factors that could contribute to the capacity  
difference between the advertised capacity and the actual  
capacity:  
1. Hard Drive Manufactures use conversion rate of 1GB = 1  
Billion Bytes or 1000^3 Bytes. However, most Operating  
Systems, including our Duplication System use standard  
conversion rate of 1GB = 1.074 Billion Bytes or 1024^3  
Bytes. Therefore, for an advertised 80GB Hard Drive (80  
Billion Bytes), the Duplication System capacity is actually  
74.5 Billion Bytes (74.5GB).  
2. In addition, we round off all fractions of a GB to the lower  
whole number. That means for a hard drive that has a 74.5GB  
system capacity, we only recognize and utilize 74GB.  
The following steps will show you how to load your master disc  
into the installed Hard Drive as a partition and copy the stored  
partition onto blank discs. This process is recommended for mass  
volume production.  
- 30 -  
 
To load your master disc onto a hard drive partition, please do the  
following:  
1. Make sure the Master Reading Source is set to the Hard  
Drive.  
2.  
It is very important to make sure the Master Reading Source is  
set for the Hard Drive in order to avoid unnecessary error

Tutorial Guide  
XI.  
Introduction to Duplication Mode  
In order to achieve 8x or higher DVD duplication performance; there  
are 3 factors that need to be certified as 8x or higher speed:  
1. Master Disc Reading Speed  
2. Computer Controlling Speed  
3. Recorder Writing Speed*  
*The recordable DVD media must be certified 8x or higher in order  
to have 8x or higher recorder writing speed.  
If any or all of the above 3 factors fail to meet the 8x or up higher  
certification, under any circumstances, you will encounter bottleneck  
symptoms which will delay your duplication time and reduce your  
duplication quality.  
When making duplications directly from the master disc to the blank  
disc; you often cannot maintain true 8x speed throughout the  
duplication process. Unfortunately, due to physical recordable DVD  
limitations, most DVD master discs can not be read at 8x or higher  
speeds continuously. Often the reader will fall behind the burners  
and the whole process will have to slow down.  
In order to avoid this issue, first load the master disc into the hard  
drive and make all duplications through the hard drive. To duplicate  
form the Hard Drive, you need to load your DVD master disc into a  
Hard Drive partition. Once loaded, make copies from the Hard  
Drive partition as you would from the master disc. This process can  
be a little complicated and requires certain knowledge of the  
duplicator in order to operate.  
To simplify this process for anyone, we introduced a new feature  
called “Load and Copy” under the new category “Duplication  
Mode”. This feature reduces the “Duplication from Hard Drive”  
- 58 -  
 
process to a single step!  
There are two features under “Duplication modes”:  
On the Fly:  
This mode instructs the duplicator to copy directly from the master  
disc. The duplicator performs simultaneous read and write  
operations without any delays.  
Advantage:  
-
Ideal for small quantity quick duplication.  
Disadvantage:  
Requires a master disc for each and every run. (Could  
-
be harmful for the master disc)  
-
Maximum DVD duplication speed is typically limited  
under 8x.  
-
Requires the master disc to be in excellent condition  
for error free duplication.  
Load and Copy:  
This mode instructs the duplicator to load your master disc into the  
built-in hard drive partition called “Reserved” and make the  
requested quantity of copies directly from the hard drive. The  
content will remain stored in the “Reserved” partition, available for  
future duplications of the same project until you perform this  
function again with a new master or manually rename or delete the  
content from Hard Drive Setup. Once a new master is used for Load  
and Copy, the “Reserved” partition will be overridden or one will be  
created if it didn’t exist.  
Advantage:  
-
Faster duplication in a long run.  
- 59 -  
 
(Un-Restricted DVD Duplication speed supported by  
the duplication blank media)  
Stable duplication.  
-
-
Reliable duplication  
Disadvantage:  
-
The loading time may have an impact on overall  
duplication time for small duplication jobs.  
The master disc will be loaded to the reserve partition  
in the Hard Drive temporarily until a new master is  
loaded and overrides the previous image.  
-
In comparing this duplication mode with the traditional “Duplication  
from Hard Drive” process, it offers the user more simplicity. By  
selecting the “Load and Copy” mode via one simple touch, all the  
necessary tasks will be automated for you and loaded on to the  
“Reserved” partition. You can rename the data on the “Reserved”  
partition and place it in a standard partition if you wish to keep it.  
(This must be done prior to loading a new master through “Load and  
Copy)”.  
By default, the duplication mode is set to “Auto”. This will prompt  
you to choose between one of the duplication modes when you enter  
any of the following functions: “Copy”, “Test”, “Test + Copy”, and  
“Copy + Compare”.  
However, if you prefer not to be prompted each time, you can  
always go to “12. Setup” and select sub-menu 9 and manually reset  
it. To do so, please follow the below steps:  
When you turn on the duplicator, you shall see following:

XII. Using AUTOCOPY  
- 61 -  
 
The AutoCopy function allows you to copy from Disc to  
Disc automatically without pressing any keys. It is the  
simplest way to make CD/DVD copies. The following  
tutorial will show you how to use this feature.  
1. Use the UP or DOWN arrow button to navigate to the  
following screen.  
DUPLICATOR 1.00  
15.AutoCopy  
2. Press “>>” to enter the AutoCopy Mode and you shall see the  
following:  
AUTOCOPY  
Waiting for Master  
3. Now, insert your Master Disc into the top Reader Tray and  
your Blank Discs into corresponding Writer Trays. Be sure to  
close the trays after you load the discs into them. (You can  
automatically close all trays by press the “>>” when the  
screen shows “Waiting for Blanks”  
4. Please allow 5-10 seconds for the duplicator to detect your  
Master Disc and Blank Discs. After your Master Disc and  
Blank Discs have been recognized, then you shall see the  
following screen:  
Processing...  
Please Wait  
5. After 2 or 3 seconds of processing time, the following Copy  
Progress Screen will appear.  
Copying ... 4012MB  
0 12% 481MB  
- 62 -  
 
-
-
-
-
“4012MB” indicates the capacity of the master disc.  
“481MB” indicates the current progress of the  
duplication in terms of MB  
“12%” indicates the current progress of the  
duplication.  
“0” indicates that you have made 0 copies so far.  
It is normal to see the progress indicator stays at 0-  
10% and 100% for approximately 30 seconds for CD  
duplication and up to 1 minute for DVD duplication.  
That is caused by the initializing and finalizing stage.  
6. Once the duplication run is completed, the successful copies  
will be ejected and you shall see the following screen:  
PASS 7 FAIL 0( 7)  
Waiting for Blanks  
-
-
-
“PASS 7” indicates that you’ve  
just made 7 successful copies.  
“FAIL 0” indicates that you  
have no failure in this run.  
“7” indicates that you’ve  
successfully copied 7 copies so  
far.  
Next, refill your Blank Discs to continue making more  
copies. If you wish to copy a new Master Disc, you will need  
to remove the old master and load the new master discs prior  
to loading any new blank discs into the writer trays.  
If you have a failed disc(s) (bad copy), the failed  
disc(s) will not be ejected automatically. You need to  
manually eject the disc(s) and discard it if it’s a write  
once recordable disc(s).

Disc Copies” or “Tutorial Guide II – Make Hard  
Drive(HDD)-to-Disc Copies”  
2. TEST  
This menu will guide you to make simulation of copying  
process. During this simulation process, all write once  
recordable discs such as (DVD-R, CD-R) will be reusable. The  
purpose of performing such simulation is to ensure error free  
duplication.  
Due to the physical limitation of DVD+R/RW & BD-  
R/RE recordable format, you can not perform this  
procedure if your recordable discs are DVD+R/RW &  
BD-R/RE recordable format. If you do so, you will  
encounter failure messages.  
If you are using CD-RW/DVD-RW discs as your  
blanks media during the simulation, all of the content  
inside those discs will be ereased permanently.  
3. COMPARE  
This menu will guide you to perform a bit-by-bit comparison  
between the Master Reading Source and all the copied discs  
inside the writer tray. The purpose to perform this compare  
operation is to ensure all of your copies have the exactly same  
information as your Master Reading Source.  
- 65 -  
 
4. TEST + COPY  
This menu will guide you to perform the simulation of copying  
process and if everything has passed during the simulation, a  
real copying process will be performed. If there’s an error  
encountered during the simulation, an error message will be  
displayed and the copying process will not be initiated.  
5. COPY + COMPARE  
This menu will guide you to make copies for you and after the  
copy process has been finished, it will perform an additional  
comparison process automatically to ensure data correctness.  
6. VERIFY

prefer to navigate this duplicator. Current supported  
languages are Spanish, English, etc.  
12.2 Auto Start  
This setting will allow you to choose Auto, Full or Off.  
When it is Full, This feature will allow the duplicator to  
copy automatically once your master disc and all of the  
writer trays of the duplicator are fulfilled with recordable  
media.  
- 67 -  
 
When it is Off, the copy process requires you to press “>>”  
button to confirm the duplication.  
When it is Auto, if your duplicator has detected 3 blank  
discs on a 4 target or higher duplicator for example and  
didn’t detect any additional blank discs for 30 seconds, then  
the duplication will be started automatically.  
However, in order for this feature to take effect, you need  
to be inside the operation menu such as COPY, TEST,  
TEST+COPY, COPY+COMPARE, etc.  
12.3 Read Error Skip  
Normally, when the duplicator encountered a reading error  
while reading your master disc, all the duplication will be  
aborted and all the recordable media will be ruined.  
However, if you believe that your master disc has a small,  
insignificant error due to physical damages, you can enable  
the setting to allow the duplicator to skip any read error* it  
has encountered.  
*This function will not fix the error; it will only skip it to  
make the rest of the data readable.  
12.4 CD Writing Mode  
This setting will allow you to select which mode you would  
like to duplicate a CD. There are two different modes,  
“Disc at Once” and “Track at Once”. Unless you  
understand completely what they mean, we strongly  
suggest you to set it as “Disc at Once”.  
12.5 Max Audio, VCD & CDG Speed  
Audio CD’s and Video CD’s do not have internal error  
checking capability, so duplicating at too high a speed may  
cause frequent errors. This setting will allow you to adjust

*Please note that system will be restarted when this setting  
is changed.  
13. Utility  
13.1 Disc Info  
If you are uncertain about the type of blank recordable  
media you are using, the duplicator is equipped with the  
disc info function to help identify and notify you of the disc  
information encoded within.  
- 70 -  
 
This function (Disc Info) can be found in the “Utility”  
menu. This feature will identify your blank recordable  
Media’s format, capacity, manufacture ID as well as the  
Media’s certified writing speed.  
- This feature only applies to media in the  
recording trays.  
13.2 Prescan  
Approximately 50% of failures reported by our duplicator  
are caused by errors in the master disc which our Reader  
couldn’t overcome. When this kind of failure occurs, it  
tends to waste all of your blank recordable medias.  
To help detect flaws in the master disc prior to performing  
the duplicating process, we introduce the “Prescan” feature.  
This feature will scan and detect any bad sectors existing in  
the master disc. It is recommended to perform this feature  
before starting the duplication task for all master discs. By  
doing so you can prevent wasting the blank media if there  
is an error in the master disc.

CD/DVD itself for damage.  
Your master disc may be copy protected. Normally, most of the  
DVD and some of the CD you have purchase from stores have  
been copy protected.  
Use the Writers to read your master disc by selecting one of  
writers as the Master Reading Source (Please refer to “Tutorial  
IV – Select the Master Reading Source”); if it works, make a  
copy of your master disc and treat the copy as the new master.  
Then set the Master Reading Source back to the READER and  
try again.  
3. Buttons do not function.  
Maybe it is still busy on a task. Give it sometime and press it  
again. If it still doesn’t work, turn off the machine, and then  
restart the machine after a minute.  
4. Copy completed but the copies are not readable /  
executable?  
Use “compare” feature to check the copied disc.  
Based on our experience, the quality of your media plays a big  
role on this part. Try to use high quality media to prevent such  
problems.  
Please use another DVD/CD player/ROM to test the copied  
media. Sometimes, your DVD/CD Player/ROM may not be  
compatible with recordable DVD/CD disc.

5. The failure rate is high.  
Lower the “write speed” and try again. Please refer to “Tutorial  
III – Select the Duplication Speed.”  
Quality of blank disc may be poor.  
Quality of your master disc may be poor.  
6. Do I need to upgrade my duplicator’s firmware?  
Unless your system is getting unstable, we strongly suggest  
not upgrading your duplicator’s firmware. Please contact our  
Tech Support if your system is getting unstable.  
7. Cannot boot-up or fails to upgrade firmware.  
Contact our Tech Support.  
8. Can I load data directly from my computer to my  
duplicator’s Hard Drive?  
No, your duplicator’s Hard Drive has a unique file system that  
computers will not recognize. Thus, you can’t perform any  
read/write operations to the Hard Drive from your computer.  
9. Why some writers won’t copy?  
If those writers are connected with USB 2.0/Firewire IEEE  
1394 connections, please make sure the USB 2.0/Firewire  
connections is off and restart your duplicator.  
Reset back to default. ( Troubleshoot #11 )
