Composer XL Printer Autoloader

Automate your CD-R and DVD-R printing with the new Conductor Printer Autoloader from Primera Technology.

Primera Conductor Instead of manually loading and printing discs one at a time, Composers advanced robotic mechanism automatically loads and unloads them from any FARGO® or Primera® ink-jet or thermal optical disc printer. Composer XL has a 100-disc capacity, making the task of printing large numbers of discs fast, easy and hands-free.

Loading discs one at a time into a CD printer is a time-consuming and inefficient process, especially if you need 50, 100 or more discs printed. But now you can easily and inexpensively automate the process with the new ComposerXL Printer Autoloader.

Simple to Operate,Proven Reliability
Set-up and operation is easy. Just set a Primera ink-jet or thermal printer onto the integrated printer stand. Connect one control cable and apply power. Send a print file as you normally would from virtually any Windows graphics program along with the number of discs you need printed. Then, walk away and let Composer's precision robotics move up to 50 discs per batch into and out of your printer - automatically!

Easy to Upgrade
As your needs change, ComposerXL can be upgraded at any time to include a CD-R or DVD-R drive along with Windows®-based software for mastering and disc duplication. This turns your Conductor into a complete record and print solution.

Two Printing Options
Composer comes ready for the integration of a Primera Technology CD Printer. You can print text, graphics, logos and even full-color photos directly onto the top surface of the disc.

Both ink-jet and thermal printers are available, so you can choose which one works best for you.

Select the Signature IV® CD Color Printer for 1200x1200 dpi, full-color printing onto printable-surface discs. Choose SignatureZ6 for fast & incredible 4800 dpi color printing - the best in the world.

Or, chose the Inscripta™ Thermal CD Printer for durable, scratch- and smudge-resistant, completely waterproof printing onto standard discs.
