PLYMOUTH, MN, U.S.A. (April 14, 2003) '” Primera Technology, Inc., a leading manufacturer of CD/DVD duplicators and printers, today announced its new Composer XL Optical Disc Duplicator. Primera has also announced new, lower pricing on its entire range of Composer Optical Disc Duplicators. 'We wanted to provide our customers with the best features of our award-winning Composer and ComposerPlus Optical Disc Duplicators," says Mark Strobel, Primera's VP of Sales & Marketing. 'Now users will have the best of both worlds in the Composer XL Optical Disc Duplicator."
The main features of Composer XL are:
Higher Capacity
Composer XL is an automated duplication system that can be configured for either
CD-R or DVD-R. It duplicates and optionally prints up to 100 discs per job from any Windows®-based PC.
Faster Robotics
