Loading Data to and Copying from the Hard Disk Source Drive

TEAC Tower DVD Duplicator User’s Manual

Note: 

With the default setting, after source data has been successfully copied to the 
target DVD discs, the DVD Duplicator automatically ejects the discs.

With the default setting, if the copy operation fails, the failed target DVD disc 
remains in the target drive. To remove the failed DVD disc, press the eject 
button on the target drive and retrieve the disc. Then press the eject button 
again to retract the disc tray. You can change the default settings by using 
the [Advanced Setup] menu. (See “12 Advanced Setup (Adv Setup)” on 
page 20.)
