When selecting CD or DVD copiers there are
many considerations that may not be immediately apparent:
Machine Controller. The Controller design
in your duplication machine is critical to copy quality
and continuity. Controller design also impacts on
the ability to upgrade your machine in the future.
R Quest copiers feature purpose designed controllers
that allow readily upgradable firmware. Controller
firmware updates are posted on the web for easy download.
Power supply. R Quest duplication equipment
feature power supplies designed to work in harmony
with True Copy writers and R-Quest controllers. Ordinary
PC power supplies used in cheaper machines can upset
critical drive and controller electronics.
Case Design. R-Quest duplicators have custom
designed cases that manage airflow for the optimum
operating temperature. Ordinary PC cases raise operating
temperatures, shorten drive life, reduce copy quality
and media versatility.
Image Files. The ability to 'read once, write
many' by creating an Image file on an internal hard
drive allows better quality, uniform copies, especially
during extended duplication runs. Without an image
file repeated copy cycles heat the master, reducing
read and therefore copy quality. Audio copies are
especially susceptible. R Quest tower and auto loader
systems allow image files.
Replacement Drives. Our R-Quest system allows
you to mix and match drives, which can be replaced
or upgraded as required. Cheaper copiers deny you
this facility often forcing you to replace drives
'like for like'.
Upgrade Path. With CD and DVD formats and
media constantly evolving it is important to select
a copy system that can keep up. R Quest copiers are
easily upgradeable for system and drive firmware which
can be downloaded at any time from the Internet. Drives
can be upgradeable 'in situ', as opposed to plugging
them in to a PC.
Cost of non-conformance. How much would producing
or shipping a bad disk cost you? A bad demo disk might
cost you a lost sale, and it's worse when you consider
what the lifetime value of that client might have
been. If you are shipping a low margin product, the
cost of replacing bad disks could turn your profit
into a loss.
