Thank you for purchasing the RICOH CD-R/RW or DVD+RW/+R drive (hereafter referred to as the
('drive'). In order to ensure the drive's long lasting operating efficiency, it must be properly installed.
Please follow these procedures carefully.

Before installing the drive, write down its serial number below.
The serial number will be needed if you have to contact customer service.
_________________________________________________________________
STEP 2:
INSTALLING THE DRIVE
The drive may be installed as a master drive or a slave drive. When installing as a slave drive please
change the jumper settings on the rear panel.
1. Turn off the computer
2. Jumper Set Up.
Before the installation, set the jumper on the jumper
connector on the rear panel. The drive can be con-
nected as the Master or Slave on an EIDE (ATAPI)
interface. When several (up to four) EIDE devices
are connected, each drive must be set in a unique
way. Master/Slave setting is determined by a
jumper on the Jumper Connector. The following
table shows the possible jumper settings.
3. Mount the drive.
Insert the drive unit into the 5-inch bay horizontally, and secure it using the provided
screws.
4. Connect the power cable.
Connect the 4-pin power cable from the computer's power supply to the power
connector at the drive's rear panel. If there is no spare cable available in the computer,
it will be necessary to purchase a splitter cable.
5. Connecting the IDE cable.
Connect one end of the IDE cable to the drive.
Then connect the other end to the motherboard's E-IDE connector.
6. Connect the Sound Card.
If a sound card is present in the computer, connect the drive to the sound card with
the audio cable.
7. Replace the computer cover.
Connect the power cable and turn on the computer. If the drive is not recognized
on the computer, check to see if the port is enabled in the BIOS. For more detailed
explanation, refer to the manual of the computer.
8. Check the device driver.
It is not necessary to install any special device drivers.
In order to ensure normal drive operation (or if the drive is not recognized by your computer), please check the following.
