Primera Optical Disc Duplicator Composer XL User manual

NEW!
Composer XL makes producing your own CDs and DVDs fast and easy. It lets you duplicate up to
100 discs per job in your own office incorporating the fastest possible production speeds available as
well as an advanced FireWire™interface.
Composer XL’s advanced robotics and software work automatically, so no operator intervention is
required after a job is started. Highly intuitive authoring and duplication software can be learned in an
hour or less. Depending upon your needs, you can also print directly onto your discs with any of
Primera's popular inkjet or thermal disc printers.
Whether you need to duplicate music, video, software or data, Composer XL makes the process simple
– at a price virtually any company can afford!

EASY TO OPERATE, PROVEN RELIABILITY
Composer XL’s efficient and user-friendly design streamlines all operations. Since
most duplication jobs are unattended, reliability has carefully been designed into
Composer XL. Its “pick-and-place” mechanism greatly improves upon the reliability
of other designs, assuring you nonstop, high-volume production. During factory life
testing, Composer XL has picked over 500,000 discs without a single mis-pick — over
14 years of typical operation! In addition, Composer XL has a high-impact plastic
front and all-metal case. Its rugged construction and styling make it equally at home
in office or production environments.
THREE PRINTING OPTIONS
Composer XL comes ready for the integration of a Primera Technology CD printer.
You can print text, graphics, logos and even full-color photos directly onto the top
surface of discs.
Both inkjet and thermal printers are available, so you can choose which one works
best for you. Select the Signature IV®CD Color Printer for 1200 x 1200 dpi, full-color
printing quality onto printable-surface discs. Choose SignaturePro®for fast &
incredible 2400 dpi color printing. Or, choose the Inscripta™Thermal CD Printer for
durable, scratch- and smudge-resistant, completely waterproof printing onto standard
discs.
CD, DVD AND AUTOLOADER MODELS AVAILABLE
For CD-Rs, the Composer XL has a state-of-the-art 52x drive. Full 700MB discs are
produced in less than three minutes each! If you’d also like to duplicate DVD±Rs, no
problem! The combination DVD±R/CD-RW Composer XL, utilizing Pioneer's latest
optical disc recording technology, is particularly versatile. Each drive is dual-purpose,
able to record both DVD±R's as well as CD-R/CD-RW's.
Both models come equipped with Sonic™PrimoDVD™Software enhanced with new
user interface, serialization of discs and more!
If you only need a manual loader, the Composer XL Autoloader automatically loads
and unloads discs from any Primera Signature or Inscripta printer.
UNCOMPROMISED VALUE
Primera Technology's high-volume approach to design and manufacturing assures you
of the highest quality at the lowest possible cost. Compared to other similar
duplication systems, Composer is simply the best value available today! It's a
versatile, high-performance CD-R and DVD±R duplicator that's fast and easy to
use – and has a new low price that fits any budget!
