• Asynchronous duplication and printing: each drive acts independently of each other, meaning that each drive start recording individually when the drive's tray is closed. When finished, media is loaded to the printer immediately for individual printing.
• Up to 7 unique jobs can be done simultaneously. A job contains 1 unique data master for duplication and 1 unique label file for printing.
• The system can be controlled through a computer network, data master and label file can be loaded through the network.
• Olympus Publisher's software SDK (Software Developer Kit) can be integrated into any environment for customized recording and printing. SDK enables you to collect individual data from any source and record and print it to individual DVD-Rs and CD-Rs.
• Archive and backup your data
• DVD/CD duplication with integrated label printing for unattended operation.
• Mastering of data DVD/CDs and audio CDs
• DVD/CD production from pre-defined images including DDP (Disc Description Protocol)
• On-Demand publishing with customized label printing

Because of its modular architecture Olympus Publisher will adapt to your requirements and fit well into an existing networked environment. The software consists of the server component, which controls the actual recording process as well as a set of applications for the definition of the disc contents. The Olympus server controls the hardware and administers the job list. Each job represents one production series and contains important information like number of copies, label print file and additional parameters. The job attributes and the job list can also be modified by network clients under control of the integrated user management. A job is easily created and hundreds of copies produced by just dragging & dropping the Disc Image to the job list. The user interface provides all important hardware and job status information even over the network.
