To Ensure Safe Management of Recorded Data
1. Do not subject discs to shock.
If you subject a CD-R disc to shock while data is being written to it, the data currently being written
including data that is already on the disc can be lost, and other errors may occur. If this happens, the lost
data cannot be recovered. Canon cannot assume any responsibility for lost data. Therefore, please pay
careful attention to subjecting the document recorder to shock during operation and, in particular, during
writing to a CD-R disc.
2. Do not allow the label side of the CD-R to become dirty or scratched.
Data is recorded onto the label side of the CD-R. If the label side of the CD-R becomes dirty or scratched,
any data on the disc may be lost. Also, writing on the label side of the CD-R with a ballpoint pen or a
sharp instrument will damage the recording layer of the CD-R, and result in the data becoming unreadable.
In either case, it is impossible to retrieve data from a damaged disc. If you must write on the disc, always
use a felt-tip pen or a pen with a soft point. Also, please be careful when handling discs.
3. Make backups.
CD-R discs can store a large volume of information. Therefore, a scratch on the disc can result in a large
amount of data being lost. We strongly recommend making frequent backups using the disc copy function.
4. Prepare spare discs
Always keep at least one spare disc for backups, or if a disc becomes unusable.
5. Use only suitable discs.
Use only appropriate high-quality discs that are compatible with the CD-R document recorder drive. For
details, contact your local authorized Canon dealer.
6. Be careful when using CD-R discs that have been written onto by this document
recorder when used in other CD-R or CD-rewritable drives. If write operations are
performed on discs using other drives, there is a possibility that discs could become
unusable with the document recorder.
7. Always wait at least 10 seconds after turning the power OFF before you turn the
power back ON.
