1. Welcome
The Copy Master II duplicator is a reliable, high performance, high speed,
standalone CD and/or DVD duplicator. With its professional industrial design
and simple user interface, it makes your duplicating experience easier than
ever.
Before you start using this duplicator, please read the following to ensure

Important Notice
If you have purchased a CD duplicator, your duplicator will duplicate CDs
ONLY. However, if you have purchased a DVD duplicator, it will duplicate
both DVDs and CDs.

In addition to the copy protection limitation, the duplicator will only copy a

If your duplicator has double layer/dual layer capability, you can copy a
DVD9 format (8.5 GB) disc to another DVD9 format recordable DVD media,
but you cannot duplicate a DVD5 format disc on to a DVD9 format record-
able media or vice versa.

duplicator from functioning.
