Handling Procedures
Obey the following cautions when handling the drive or discs.
Cautions During Installation
• Install the drive in accordance with the specifications. Be careful to
avoid locations likely to cause vibration or shock.
• Avoid locations where there is high humidity, much dust, or poor
ventilation.
• A void locations in direct sunlight, with severe changes in humidity , or
places where there are extremely high or low temperatures.
• Don't use the drive near radio or television receivers. It may interfere
with their reception.
• Dismantling the drive to attempt repairs or for other reasons is danger-
ous because the laser may radiate outside the unit. Do not disassemble
the drive.
Cautions During Use
• Don't suddenly move the drive from a cold place to a warm one, or
suddenly raise the room temperature. Condensation may occur, caus-
ing abnormal operation.
• Make sure to remove the disc before moving the drive. The disc may
be damaged, causing data loss.
• Be careful to prevent foreign objects such as liquids or metal from
entering the drive. Should by chance a foreign object enter the drive,
please consult the dealer where the drive was purchased.
• Don't use benzene or thinner to clean dirt from the drive. Don't allow
chemicals such as insecticides to contact the drive. Use a soft cloth to
wipe the drive, or moisten a cloth with neutral detergent diluted with
water and use it to clean particularly dirty areas.
• Don't cutoff the electric power while the drive is operating.
• If two different devices with the same SCSI ID are connected to the
SCSI bus, the system may fail to function. Be careful that none of the
SCSI IDs are the same when installing the equipment.
• Keep the total length of the SCSI cable within 6 meters.
• When connecting the SCSI cable to the drive, make sure the power is
OFF.
• Never insert a damaged disc into the drive.
• In wintertime, don't use a disc soon after bringing in from outdoors.
Use it only after it has reached room temperature.
iii
Cautions Concerning Disc Cleaning
• Remove the disc by pressing the eject button.
• Use compressed air to clear dust from the drive. (Spray the com-
pressed air for about 5 seconds). (See Fig. 1)
• Check to see if there is dirt on the surface of the disc. Be careful not to
touch the disc with the fingers when doing this. (See Fig. 2)
• After cleaning the disc with compressed air, place it on the disc tray
and load in the drive.
W e suggest using Perfect Duster II (80z.) as compressed air for clean-
ing.
Other Cautions
• When moving the equipment, make sure that the disc has been re-
moved from the drive.
• When connecting connectors, make sure that the power is OFF . If the
power is ON, there is a possibility of short circuit.
• When not using the drive for a long period, dust may adhere to the disc
tray. Before using the drive again, use dry air cleaner to remove the
dust from the tray .

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Multimedia Printer Series (Compact Disc
Recorder/ReWriter) MP 7040S series (abbreviated CD-R/RW drive).
Be sure to read this manual carefully before using this product.
This manual explains everything you need to know to operate this product.
Keep it in a safe place and refer to it whenever necessary .
Writing software must be installed in the host computer in order to write on
the CD-R/RW discs. Refer to the software manual for details.
Mulitimedia Printer series
The Multimedia Printer Series Drive (the CD-R/RW Drive) can do much
more than read and write the usual CD-R discs. When loaded with a rewritable
CD-RW disc, you can record, read and edit any kind of data. This is because
the CD-RW discs allow you to rewrite information that has already been
recorded.
v
Features:
* Ricoh’s original completely sealed door construction provides high
reliability.
* Running OPC*
1
gives a flatter writing signal that improves reli-
ability.
* An improved anti-heat design means that no cooling fan is needed.
* Easy-to-use tray model.
* Uses the world standard SCSI II Interface.*
2
* Compliant with industry standard Orange Book Part II (CD-R)
and Part III (CD-RW).
* Can read not only CD-R and CD-RW discs, but also video CDs,
music CDs, and photo CDs.
* Can read data at 20x speed (3MB/sec data transfer rate) and write
data at 4x speed (600KB/sec data transfer rate).
* The recorded CD-RW media can be played in a DVD player or a
multiread CD-ROM Player, maintaining future compatibility.
* Supports random UDF for easy writing to CD-RW discs.
*
1 Continuously monitors the signal level during recording and adjusts the
laser power to compensate when the disc is dirty, insuring a flat signal.
*
2 The SCSI interface board is not included with this product. You need to
purchase it separately.
