FAQ for all DVD/CD Drive Models


Recommended DVD+RW, DVD+R, CD-R, CD-RW discs

 
The following table provides general information about recommended and tested media for RICOH DVD/CD drives.
For details please refer to your manual or documents first.

Using recommended media will be always a good way to figure out the cause of the problem like:

  • an error while writing.
  • a noise problem or a reading problem.
  • cannot write at the drive's maximum speed.
  • If you are not sure where the problem is.
We recommend that you use the media listed for most RICOH DVD/CD drives
Media* Recommended Tested
DVD+RW disc Ricoh -
DVD+R disc Ricoh -
CD-R disc Ricoh Maxell, Mitsubishi Chemical (Verbatim), Mitsui Chemicals, Taiyo Yuden (That's), Ricoh
CD-RW disc Ricoh Mitsubishi Chemical (Verbatim), Ricoh
High Speed CD-RW disc Ricoh Mitsubishi Chemical (Verbatim), Ricoh

NOTE:   Due to variance in a particular lot, etc., or by changes in the materials used in the manufacture of certain media, even recommended media may not write on a certain occasion. When an error appears it would better to try other brands of recommended media or a disc from another lot of the same brand.

What kind of media are supported by your drive is determined by the drive's specifications. For a list of supported media in writing, please refer to the specifications page for each drive.
