If you want to reliably publish CDs or DVDs without having to babysit your duplicator, then check out Epson's Discproducer Disc Publisher. Designed for unattended use and capable of holding 100 discs at a time, the Discproducer can burn and print labels on 30 CDs or 15 DVDs per hour. In so doing, the Discproducer utilizes two CD/DVD drives, a built-in inkjet printer, and a variety of different notable Epson-technologies.
Depending on the number of CDs or DVDs that you want to burn and label, the Discproducer has three different operating modes. Specifically, you can choose batch mode for larger production runs of up to 100 discs, standard mode for smaller production runs up to 50 discs, and external mode for up to 5 discs.
While you're deciding which operating mode to choose, you will also have the option of choosing two different print modes. You can either go with speed mode or quality mode. In speed mode, you can print labels more quickly and up to a resolution of 1440 x 720 dpi. In quality mode, the printer takes a little more time but prints at a resolution of up to 1440 x 1440 dpi. Plus, if you only need to print on discs and not burn them, you can do so in either of these modes. If you're only printing, speed mode produces 60 discs per hour and quality mode produces 40 discs per hour.
For printing and burning discs in these various modes, the Discproducer relies on a few notable Epson technologies and design innovations. The exterior is compact, rugged, features a dust-proof body, and contains a minimum of moving parts. Among those moving parts is a robotic arm that employs Epson's AcuGrip technology. That is to say, once the arm is centered over a disc, three powered fingers separate any discs that are stuck together and ensure that only one disc is placed inside the printer or the disc drives.
For printing, inside the Discproducer are MicroPiezo print heads for delivering uniform, stable ink droplets as well as six high-capacity, ink cartridges. Each cartridge contains a different color of ink and is connected to a sensor that will alert you when ink is low. While many other inkjet printers use only one black and one color cartridge, Epson's use of six different colors is meant to save you money. More specifically, with those other printers, if you deplete a given color, such as cyan in your color cartridge, you will unfortunately need to replace the entire cartridge. Even if you have a good bit of yellow or magenta left in the cartridge and still want to print in cyan, you will need to buy another cartridge. Epson's use of six cartridges allows you to replace only one color per cartridge when it is out so as to reduce waste and lower your operating costs.
Once you've connected the Discproducer to your computer via USB 2.0, Epson's Total Disc Maker Software will provide you with all the functions that you'll need for burning and printing your discs. You'll simply need to select the media format to burn to a disc, drag-and-drop your content, design the label to be printed, configure your run, and click "Publish."
When you start burning and printing, Epson's Data Monitor Software will keep you informed of the status of your job. It provides a bounty of relevant information, such as ink levels in each cartridge, whether the drives or printer are in use, the total time needed for a job, any errors, and what disc stackers are being used to hold blank or burned discs.
In total, Epson's Discproducer Disc Publisher is a fast, convenient, hands-off way to burn and label a multitude of discs.
- Holding up to 100 discs, the Discproducer burns and prints (on speed mode) a maximum of 30 CDs or 15 DVDs per hour
- Burns on a variety of disc formats, including CD-R, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-R DL, and DVD+R DL
- Burns in three modes: batch mode for larger production runs of up to 100 discs, standard mode for smaller production runs up to 50 discs, and external mode for up to 5 discs
- Using MicroPiezo print heads, the Discproducer prints vibrant graphics up to a resolution of 1440 x 720 dpi in speed mode and 1440 x 1440 dpi in quality mode
- Six ink cartridges are connected to sensors that let you know when each one's ink is low
- Even if two discs are stuck together, the patented AcuGrip robotic arm ensures that only one disc is placed in the printer or disc drives
- Total Disc Maker Software provides you with all the functions you need to burn and print discs while Data Monitor Software provides all relevant information for monitoring your job as it's happening
- Compact rugged construction, dust-resistant body, and minimum number of moving parts ensure extra reliability

Comments about Epson Discproducer Disc Publisher:
I run a small software publisher, and I use the Discproducer to make copies of products that don't have sales volumes that support large professionally-made runs. So far I've burned about 1000 CD's, and the equipment has performed flawlessly. It's quiet, easy to use, and the print quality is as good, or maybe even better, than the ones I have made profesisonally. The ink and blank media are also reasonably priced. I don't have any negative comments - it works better than I expected in all respects. I wasn't sure when I bought it (especailly since it's kind apricy for asmall company), but it has proved to be worth every penny, and I'm glad that I did.

Comments about Epson Discproducer Disc Publisher:
We are record promoters and we needed a trustable machine to burn small series of CD audio.
We used a primera XR2 with a lot of problems.
The PP-100 changed our life: now I can launch a burn session without staying near the machine, it just works....

Comments about Epson Discproducer Disc Publisher:
We had a Rimage 2000i that served us well for about five years. It was large, noisy, quirky to operate, needed constant monitoring, had terrible documentation, but great tech support. I chose the Rimage because it was the only brand that offered an instant exchange "Spare in the air" warranty past the second year and we received three replacement units in five years - we NEVER missed a shipping deadline because we couldn't make disks.
When we could no longer renew the warranty it was was time to replace our Rimage. They were still making the 2000i, but its technology is horribly outdated so I took another look at Primera and Microboards and found their extended warranty to still be sub-par. And then I discovered the Epson...
At first I thought it was too good to be true: The Epson cost less to purchase and its extended service contract was less than 1/3 the price of the others. I got Epson's tech support number and called it; a real, live, US-based tech support rep picked up on the first ring. There was no tech support script. He was happy to answer all of my questions, and after five minutes I was convinced.
We ordered the Epson and WOW! The software was beautifully integrated. No quirks at all - just press the power button and go. It's fast, quiet, and the per-print cost (at about 15% coverage) is about $0.05 per disk vs. about $0.23 for the Rimage.
Using Taiyo Yuden (now JVC) Watershield disks, Economy mode printing is photo realistic. I've burned several thousand CDs and DVDs so far and have had ZERO bad burns and ZERO misfeeds or jams (had to monitor the Rimage constantly).
The ink monitor is a great feature. It gives you a visual "gas gauge" indicator of the remaining ink in the six individual cartridges, and also tells you approximately how many disks can be printed with the ink remaining. And when an ink cartridge finally runs out, printing stops until you replace it. With the Rimage I only knew the ink was out when the disks began printing poorly, so lots of wasted disks.
In terms of software, it's just awesome. You'll need to read the manual not because the software is difficult, but because it's flexible and allows you to set the publisher up in the way that works best for you. The instructions are very well written and the software is super easy to use. Everything is integrated into one application: job type, disk label, submit the job. Three tabs, simple, simple, simple!
There's even an option for using a background image on the label, which makes it super easy to use labels I've created in Photoshop or Illustrator (no more manually sizing and centering).
Compared to everything else that I've seen, the Epson is far and away the best in every respect.

Comments about Epson Discproducer Disc Publisher:
I am replacing my, brand new, horrible and useless Primera BRAVO XR DISC PUBLISHER which is my WORST investment ever. That ugly company, dose not even offer any support for defective products, and they never reply to your emails!!!
Anyway, this Epson disk printer is a state of the art. It is the BEST disk printer I owned, and it deserve every single cent you pay for it, because it offers the best print quality available, and the at fastest speed possible, and at the LOWEST cost!!! A superior product, and I would buy again and again and again!!!
Do not be fooled by the initial high price of the ink cartridges!! They last up to 1000 print, so they are cheaper in the long run.
