4. Using Your PlexWriter
This chapter explains how to use your PlexWriter drive and how to load, handle and
care for your CDs.
CAUTION: Ensure your PlexWriter is in a horizontal position. Plextor does not
guarantee the drive’s performance in a vertical position.
What Media to Use
Use the right media! Your PlexWriter drive’s capabilities change depending on
which type of compact disc you use. It currently supports these types:
•
CD-ROM: You can immediately play or read prerecorded discs, such as audio
CDs and data discs.
•
CD-R: Recordable CD. You can record on these discs, but only once. You can
also read them.
•
CD-RW: High-Speed ReWritable CD. These discs allow recording and re-
recording (up to 1,000 times). You can also read them. CD-RW discs are rated
for specific recording and rewriting speeds—for example, 2X and 4X. Your
PlexWriter drive will automatically detect the disc’s write speed rating and will
write at that speed.
To achieve 10X writing speed you must use high-speed RW media. You can
write to high-speed RW discs only on drives that support this new media. Drives
that are capable of writing to high-speed RW media, such as the PlexWriter
12/10/32S, are identified by a “Compact Disc ReWritable High Speed” logo.
Tray Loading and Operation
To load and unload the tray:
1. While the PlexWriter drive is powered up, push the Stop/Eject button on the front
panel. The tray drawer slides out in 3–4 seconds.
2. If this is the first time the drive is used, remove the tray insert.
3. Lay a blank CD in the depression in the tray, label side up. The CD should lie flat
in the tray.
