About MF DIGITAL
Thank you for purchasing MF DIGITAL’s Scribe SA Standalone auto­loading CD / DVD duplicator. MF DIGITAL manufactures a wide variety of CD / DVD duplication equipment, including manual and fully automated CD and DVD duplicators and printers. We hope you will consider us for all of your duplication needs.
What To Expect From Your MF DIGITAL CD / DVD Duplicator
Your MF DIGITAL Scribe SA Standalone duplicator is professionally designed and manufactured to give you years of trouble free operation. To avoid accidental damage to your new duplicator, please read and understand this manual thoroughly before operating the unit.
About This Manual
This manual is written for both novice and experienced users. Please read through this Operator’s Guide from beginning to end before using the unit. Once having read the manual, follow along chapter by chapter. This will provide the necessary understanding of your new Scribe SA Standalone duplicator.
Page 6
Getting Started
Carefully remove the Scribe SA Standalone duplicator from the shipping container. Inspect the contents, and verify them against the packing slip. Report any errors in shipping as soon as possible.
What’s In The Box
Your new Scribe SA Standalone duplicator includes:
• Scribe SA Standalone duplicator
• Power cord
• Firmware CD
• Manuals CD
• Operator’s Guide (on CD)
• Quick Connect Guide
Packing Materials
Please retain the original box and packaging in the event that the unit requires future servicing. This will help to reduce the possibility of damage occurring in transit. Should you lose or misplace your carton, a new one will need to be purchased from MF Digital.
The Best Place To Put The Scribe SA Standalone
The best operating location for the Scribe SA duplication system 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 Scribe SA 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.
Like all automated copiers, the Scribe uses photo sensors that can be adversely affected by direct light sources. Avoid placing the system in direct sunlight, under halogen or mercury vapor lights, or other close and very bright light sources. If your Scribe is behaving erratically, and it is in close proximity to bright light, or focused lighting such as spot lights, try moving it to an area with more subdued lighting. If the unit operates normally, then you may need to remove or adjust the light source, or relocate the Scribe to a different spot.

Scribe SA Standalone Series Operator’s Guide
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 Scribe SA Standalone 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 500VA.
Repairs or alterations should only be attempted by authorized, factory­trained technicians. MF DIGITAL reserves the right to void the warranty if unauthorized service is performed.

Scribe SA Standalone Series Operator’s Guide
Creating A Hard Disk Image
The Scribe SA Standalone 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. The image file is store uniquely on the internal hard disk drive as an .IMG file.
A hard disk image is useful as a convenient way of copying standard master discs. For example, create hard disk images for three or four master discs which are needed on a regular basis, and access them to make copies as required.
Creating A Single Hard Disk Image
Although the Scribe SA Standalone’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. For example, using a single image simplifies the copying process. This reduces the chance that an operator might make copies of the wrong master by selecting the incorrect hard disk image.
To create a single hard disk image (multiple images disabled), the steps are as follows:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:
• Press the “COPY” key. The screen will now read:
Page 32
Scribe SA Standalone Series Operator’s Guide
• Press the “Stop/No” key. The screen will now read:
Press the “Start/Yes” key. The screen will now read in sequence:
Page 33
Scribe SA Standalone Series Operator’s Guide
The master disc is now stored as an image on the hard disk
Note: If the master failed to copy to the hard drive properly, the
master disc will be placed in the reject area in front of the drives. These discs should not be used.
• Press the “Start/Yes” key, and you will be returned to the main operating
screen:
Note: When the Multiple Images feature is disabled, only one image
can be saved on the hard disk. If a new image is created, the old image is overwritten.
Page 34
Scribe SA Standalone Series Operator’s Guide
Creating Multiple Hard Disk Images
The Multiple Images feature allows the Scribe SA Standalone’s internal hard disk to store up to six master disc images. The factory setting for this function is “disabled”. To enable it, and create multiple image files, proceed as follows:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:
