Multimedia Printer series
Thank you for purchasing the Multimedia Printer series drive (hereafter referred to as the drive). The drive enables you to play
CD-ROM discs, write once and play CD-R discs, or write, play, and rewrite CD-RW discs.
The following marks indicate media that can be used with the drive.
A new technology called Just Link, that overcomes buffer underrun
problems
Buffer underrun errors which occur when data transfer falls behind the writing operation has been inevitable for CD-R/RW
drives. Just Link, which we at Ricoh developed on our own, is a new technology that predicts possible occurrences of buffer
underrun errors in advance and automatically avoids them. With this technology, the drive ensures stable writing operation even
under circumstances where buffer underrun errors tend to occur with conventional drives.
New technology: JustSpeed (Optimum Write Speed Control) function
When the write speed of 24X is specified, this function checks the media's capability to see if it can be written at above-12X
speeds. If the media is not capable of such speeds, the write speed is reduced to 20x, 16X or 12X.
