Recordable discs

This recorder can record on the following discs.
DVD-RAM DVD-RW DVD-R
•DVD-RWs and DVD-RAMs are rewritable.
•DVD-Rs are non-rewritable.
This can be due, among other reasons, to problems and
errors that can occur during the creation or recording of
DVD and other software and the manufacture of soft-
ware discs (including blank discs).
Moreover, because of variations in the quality of discs,
this recorder may not be able to record on all discs that
