About Software
In order to record on CD-R/RW discs you will need to have mastering,
packet writing, or duplication software installed on your computer
system. If you purchased a retail kit from Plextor, you’ll get software
packages that include such software.
For details on other software that is available for writing to CDs, please
visit the web sites of the companies whose software you are interested
in, refer to their user’s manuals, or look at the help option within the
software. A list of various software that you can use with your Plextor
drive can be found in the Support/Compatibility section of
www.plextor.com
.
Precautions
Like the rest of your computer system, your PX-230A requires
reasonable care in its installation and use.
• Keep the area around your drive clean from dust, smoke, and other
contaminants.
• Do not allow moisture or liquids, including water or cleaning fluids,
to touch the drive. Thinner, benzene, or alcohol-based solvents can
mar your drive’s surface.
• Do not drop or jolt the drive.
• Do not move, carry or transport a disc in the drive because this can
cause damage.
• Do not attempt to open the drive and service it yourself. Removing
the cover may expose you to harmful electrical voltages or the laser
beam. For your safety, entrust service to experienced service
personnel only.
• Keep your CDs free of dirt or other contaminants, by storing them in
jewel cases. Use only industry-standard discs. Do not insert dirty,
warped, poorly balanced, or cracked discs into the drive.
