Recordex® RX-100™ DVD/CD AutoLoader - QuickStart Guide
The box and foam used to package your RX-
100™ for shipping is specially designed to prevent shipping damage. If your duplica-
tor requires service during the warranty period and you don’t have original packaging
we will send you a replacement set but the cost for a replacement set is $45.00. So
we recommend hanging on to the original box & foam.
When calling for service we will
need to know the serial number of your RX-100™, the date of purchase, and the
name of the company that sold you your AutoLoader.
Your serial number is located on the outside of your
AutoLoader box. You’ll also find the Model number listed on the same label. We rec-
ommend writing the Serial number down in the inside cover of this quick start guide.
If after reading the user’s manual you’re still having trouble with
your RX-100™ then give us a call or send us a message. Service Phone: 478-237-
5501 Email: [email protected]

tion software. The Dexpreso BurningKit automates all the essential data
duplication tasks and the Dexpreso AudioPhile software automates music
duplication tasks. This software was designed for ease of use and each
task is broken down into simple steps. You won’t need to read a manual to

for each step.
The following is a listing and brief description of each task that can be per-
formed with the Dexpreso software.

Load a single disc first then add the remainder of the stack. This is
much easer than trying to load the whole stack in one step.
Included with your RX-100 is a handy little tool for removing discs from
the output tub. Insert the disc removal tool into the stack of completed
discs and then turn the output tub over. Your discs will be neatly stacked
on the removal tool and you can now move them to a cakebox or wherev-
er you plan to store them.
