Problems Using CDs Created on The Iomega CD-RW Drive on Any CD player.
CD-RW discs created on a Iomega CD-RW drive can be read on Multi read CD players. Virtually all CD-RW drives sold today are Multi read compatible. Many PC OEMs provide
Multi read compatible CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drives as standard equipment with the computers they sell. Check with the owner's manual that came with your computer equipment
to verify that the CD player is Multi read compatible.
NOTE:
CD-R discs are read by virtually all types of CD drives sold today. If in doubt as to which type of disc to use, use a CD-R disc.
