The Best Place To Put The CD-5916
The best operating location for the CD-5916 CD duplicator is in a climate controlled area, free of dirt, dust, humidity, excessive heat, and electronic or electromagnetic interference. Room temperature should be between 65 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit, or between 18 and 23 degrees Celsius. Place the CD­5916 on a solid, steady work surface, and allow sufficient room for all incidental work materials. Provide at least six inches of clearance on all sides of the unit for ventilation.
Safety Precautions
The system is shipped with a three-prong power connector, and must be used with a properly grounded AC receptacle. DO NOT try to defeat the third “ground” prong. All computer peripherals must be properly grounded, and the CD-5916 is no exception. The use of a power conditioner, such as an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) or a surge protector, is highly recommended. The minimum required size is 400VA.
Repairs or alterations should only be attempted by authorized factory­trained technicians. MediaFORM reserves the right to void the warranty if unauthorized service is performed.

Operation - Quick Start
The CD-5916 is a state-of-the-art CD duplicator. It is designed to copy and verify most standard compact disc formats. This Quick Start section will guide you through copying and comparing discs using the CD-to-CD method. More advanced topics, such as copying by making use of the internal hard disk drive, will be covered later in this guide.
Making Copies (CD-to-CD)
The quickest and simplest way of duplicating one or more discs is to use the CD-5916’s CD-to-CD copying feature. The steps are as follows:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:
1 6 X C O P Y O R C O M P A R E
• Load your original CD to be copied (master disc) into the top right-hand
side CD-R/RW recorder.
• Load as many blank discs as you may require into the remaining
recorders. Wait for the LED lights on the front of all the recorders to stop flickering (this may take up to 30 seconds).
• Press the “COPY” key on the keypad. The screen will now read:
F R O M H D ? ( S T A R T ? S T O P )
• Press the “STOP/NO” key. The screen will now read:
T O H D ? ( S T A R T ? S T O P )
• Press the “STOP/NO” key. The screen will now read:
C D - > C D ? ( S T A R T ? S T O P )
• Press the “START/YES” key to begin copying from your master disc (in
the top right-hand side recorder) to the blank discs (in the other recorders). The master will be analyzed automatically to determine its format type. The screen will now read in sequence:

Comparing Discs (CD-to-CD)
To ensure copied discs are identical to the original (master disc) the CD­5916 is equipped with powerful verification capabilities. The quickest and simplest way of comparing a disc or multiple discs against an original CD (master disc) is to use the CD-5916’s CD-to-CD compare feature.
Note: Due to the nature of the various compact disc formats only
CD-ROM Mode 1, CD-ROM Mode 2, CD-ROM XA Mode 2 Form 1, and audio (CD-DA) discs can be compared.
The steps are as follows:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:
1 6 X C O P Y O R C O M P A R E
• Load the original CD to be compared against (master disc) into the top
right-hand side CD-R/RW recorder.
• Load the discs to be compared into as many of the remaining recorders
as required. Wait for the LED lights on the front of all the recorders to stop flickering (this can take up to 30 seconds).
• Press the “COMPARE” key on the keypad. The screen will now read:
C D - > C D ? ( S T A R T ? S T O P )
• Press the “START/YES” key to begin comparing the master disc (in the
top right-hand side recorder) against the discs in the other recorders. The master will be analyzed automatically to determine its format type. The screen will now read in sequence:

Creating A Hard Disk Image
The CD-5916 comes equipped with an internal hard disk drive, which can be used to store copies of master discs for later recording or comparing. Each master is saved as a single image file. Up to six images can be stored on the hard disk at one time. If blank discs are loaded into any of the recorders while a hard disk image is being created, copies of the master disc will also be made at the same time. However, if no blank discs are loaded, the CD-5916 will simply create the image on the hard disk.
A hard disk image is useful in a number of situations. It is:
1) an efficient way of making many copies of the same master disc. For example, create a hard disk image while copying the first set of fifteen discs. Eject the master disc and the first fifteen copies. You will then load sixteen blank discs and continue copying (sixteen copies are made from the hard disk image at one time, instead of fifteen, as would be the case using the CD-to-CD method).
2) a convenient way of copying standard master discs. For example, create hard disk images for five or six master discs which are needed on a regular basis, and access them to make copies as required.
3) a more reliable way of copying a poorer quality master disc. For example, first create a hard disk image of a master disc which is not good enough for CD-to-CD copying. The hard disk image will then serve as a more reliable master.
Creating A Single Hard Disk Image
Although the CD-5916’s internal hard disk can store up to six images of master discs, it is sometimes prudent not to use this Multiple Image feature, and only allow one image to be created and stored. Using a single image simplifies the copying process. This reduces the chance that an operator might make copies of the wrong discs by selecting the incorrect hard disk image.
To create a single hard disk image, the steps are as follows:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:

Comparing Discs (CD-to-CD TOC)
In addition to the comprehensive byte-for-byte CD-to-CD and hard disk image compare features of the CD-5916. Discs can also be quickly checked against an original CD (master disc) using a CD-to-CD TOC compare process. This method compares the Table of Contents (TOC) area of discs only, and is intended as a fast way of identifying that they are the same. It is not, however, designed to be a complete inspection process. Use the full compare methods for complete quality assessments.
To compare copied discs against a master disc using the CD-to-CD TOC method, the steps are as follows:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:
1 6 X C O P Y O R C O M P A R E
• Load the original CD to be compared against (master disc) into the top

SmartRID And SmartSTAMP Codes
The SmartRID and SmartSTAMP codes are unique electronic fingerprints that can be optionally written into audio and data discs copied with the CD-5916. These fingerprints allow discs to be traced back to the specific CD-5916 unit, and even the recorder that copied them. SmartRID and SmartSTAMP are useful ways of dealing with unauthorized copying, authenticating discs, and helping to diagnose copying problems.
SmartSTAMP codes are written outside the specified data area of a data CD-ROM, so copies will be exactly the same as the original. However, SmartRID codes written into audio discs may be mistakenly detected by industrial mastering systems as errors, and therefore should not be used when creating master discs for mass replication purposes.
Writing SmartRID And SmartSTAMP Codes
To write a SmartRID or SmartSTAMP code into discs copied with the CD-5916, the steps are as follows:

Copy Protection
Copy protection is a feature to hinder unauthorized copying that can be written into data discs (CD-ROM Mode 1 only) duplicated with the CD-
5916. This offers a basic level of defense against casual copying
attempts by inserting and writing invalid blocks at the beginning of a CD-ROM, in its header section.
The CD-5916’s copy protection function is an elementary tool designed to frustrate commercial duplication equipment, and consumer software that copies discs at the block-level. It will not, however, defeat specialized copying utilities, which are capable of blind reading. In addition, it will not prevent discs from being re-authored one file at a time using a CD-R/RW recorder, and a premastering program (such as Adaptec Easy CD Creator and Toast, CeQuadrat WinOnCD, Ahead Nero, NTI CD-Maker, and others).
Copy protected discs cannot be duplicated by the CD-5916 and therefore cannot be used as masters. It is also important to remember that copy protected discs may also be mistakenly identified by industrial mastering systems as containing errors, and therefore should not be used as master discs for mass replication purposes.
Enabling Copy Protection
To write copy protection into discs copied with the CD-5916, the steps are as follows:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:
1 6 X C O P Y O R C O M P A R E
• Press the “2” key. The screen will now read:

Creating Audio Compilation Discs
In addition to copying entire CDs, audio compilation discs can be created a track at a time from one or more master discs containing audio (CD-DA, mixed mode, CD-Extra) using the CD-5916’s audio track import feature.
To create an audio compilation disc, the steps are as follows:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:
1 6 X C O P Y O R C O M P A R E
• Load the master disc that contains the audio track(s) you wish to copy
into the top right-hand side CD-R/RW recorder.
• Load a blank disc into the second recorder from the top right-hand side.
Wait for the LED lights on the of all the recorders to stop flickering (this may take up to 30 seconds).
Note: Only one audio compilation disc can be created at one time. If
several copies are required, first create the original compilation disc. You will then copy it in the usual way.
• Press the “5” key. The screen will now read:
I M P O R T T R A C K 0 1 ?
• Select the track from the master disc you wish to copy first by pressing
the corresponding number on the keypad.
• Press the “START/YES” key. The screen will now read:
I M P O R T M O R E F R O M C D ?
• If you wish to copy another track from the same master disc, press the
“START/YES” key. Enter the next track number as before, press the “START/YES” key, and continue until you have selected the desired tracks from the same master disc.
• Press the “STOP/NO” key when finished, and a screen similar to the one
below will be displayed. In this example, tracks 1, 4 and 7 have been selected:

Working With CD-ReWritable (CD-RW) Discs
In addition to working with CD-Recordable (CD-R) discs, the CD-5916 can also copy both to and from CD-ReWritable (CD-RW) discs. CD-R discs are write-once and can be read on any CD audio player, CD-ROM, and MultiRead DVD-ROM drive. CD-RW discs can be rewritten to as many as 1,000 times and are read using MultiRead CD-ROM (usually 24x and faster) and DVD-ROM drives.
Note: 10x CD-ReWritable (CD-RW) discs are supported by CD-
5908 systems equipped with SmartDRIVE 16x recorders. Please note, 2x and 4x CD-Rewritable (CD-RW) discs are not compatible.
CD-RW Supported Formats
The CD-5916 can copy CD-RW discs written in most logical formats (ISO 9660, audio, etc.) but not those created using the Universal Disk Format (UDF). CD-RW discs using UDF are produced by packet writing software (such as Adaptec DirectCD, CeQuadrat PacketCD, Prassi abCD etc.). Because UDF discs cannot be read by all CD-ROM drives they are not a good choice for distributing data.
CD-RW Copying Speed
CD-RW copying speed is determined by two factors - the CD-RW writing speed of the recorders installed in the CD-5916 (10x with SmartDRIVE 16x) and the maximum speed rating of the discs themselves. CD-RW discs are manufactured with an internal speed code that is checked before copying begins. The CD-5916, equipped with the SmartDRIVE 16x, will only accept 10x CD-ReWritable (CD-RW) discs.
Copying From CD-RW Master Discs
Although it is possible to perform CD-to-CD copying using a CD-RW disc as the master disc, it is advisable to first create a hard disk image (see page
24). This is to work around a limitation in the design of CD-RW discs
which prevents them from being read reliably at high speed.
Page 50
Page 52
CD-5916 Operator’s Guide
Converting From Track-at-Once To Disc-at-Once
Discs produced on the CD-5916 are identical copies to the master discs from which they were made. This means that, for example, when an unfinalized Track-at-Once master disc is copied the resulting disc is written so that it is also an unfinalized Track-at-Once disc. From time to time it may be necessary, however, to convert open Track-at-Once discs to Disc-at­Once discs.
To copy a master disc so that it is converted from Track-at-Once to Disc-at­Once mode the steps are as follows:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:
1 6 X C O P Y O R C O M P A R E
• Load your original CD to be copied and converted (master disc) into the
top right-hand side CD-R/RW recorder.
• Load as many blank discs as you may require into the remaining
recorders. Wait for the LED lights on the of all the recorders to stop flickering (this may take up to 30 seconds).
• Press the “7” key. The screen will now read:
E N T E R A U T H O R I N G M O D E ?
• Press the “STOP/NO” key. The screen will now read:
R E A D R I D I N F O ?
• Press the “STOP/NO” key. The screen will now read:
C O P Y D I S C A T O N C E ? 1 = Y E S
• Press the “1” key to begin copying from your master disc (in the top
right-hand side recorder) to the blank discs (in the remaining recorders). The master disc will be analyzed automatically to determine its format type. The screen will now read in sequence:
D I S C A T O N C E C O P Y

Once the format of the master disc is determined, copying will begin. Depending on the format type, something like the following will be displayed on the screen:
M A S T E R S I Z E 2 5 5 M B
S I N G L E T R A C K M O D E 1
Progress will be displayed on the screen during the operation:

• Press the “START/YES” key and you will be returned to the main
operating screen:
1 6 X C O P Y O R C O M P A R E
Note: If any of the recorder tray drawers stay closed upon
completion the discs they contain failed to copy properly and should not be used. To help you determine the nature of the problem, error messages can be displayed by pressing the “9” key on the keypad.

Appendix A: Supported Formats
Originally designed for audio use the Compact Disc (CD) evolved quickly and now employs a wide variety of formats for audio, data and multimedia applications. The following is a list of the most popular formats currently supported by the CD-5916. Periodic firmware updates will be made available to deal with new formats as they appear. To obtain the latest version of firmware contact your MediaFORM reseller or download the update from the MediaFORM web site: www.mediaform.com.
Many CD formats are international or industry standards but variations on them may emerge from time to time. Should you encounter a disc (which does not employ a copy protection scheme) that you cannot copy on your CD-5916 MediaFORM will do its best to promptly add support for this format. Dealing with custom formats, however, may be subject to a development charge.
Keeping track of how the various formats relate to each other can be confusing. For example, the CD-5916 can copy all CD-ROM Mode 1 discs - this includes ISO 9660, HFS, Hybrid, Rock Ridge and many other types of file systems. As a result the CD-5916 will most likely copy CD formats not listed in the table below. If you require further assistance please contact MediaFORM’s technical support department at (610) 458-9200 or email: support@mediaform.com.
