"We are pleased to be certified as an Authorized Primera Media Partner. Their printers are among the finest available and with the combination of high quality RIDATA printable DVD's and Primera's printers, users can now custom design vibrant professional disc graphics on their PC or MAC(R), then print directly onto our printable RIDATA DVD+/-R discs," stated Andy Huang, Marketing Manager for Advanced Media (RITEK USA). "Together, this top of the line combination creates a dazzling to see, accurate to record RIDATA printable DVD for either professional or personal applications."

"RIDATA discs exhibit all of the outstanding characteristics we look for when approving media for use with our printers," stated Mark D. Strobel, VP of Sales and Marketing for Primera Technology. "The discs dry quickly, have bright and vibrant colors, and of course, are top-notch in their recording abilities. We're pleased to have approved this superior media for use on our complete range of products, which includes inkjet and thermal printers as well as our Bravo II and BravoPro Disc Publishers."

The RIDATA inkjet printable DVD+/-R disc has a 4.7GB capacity and is available in 4x or 8x speeds, featuring a specially formulated white printable surface. Consistent high-quality recording and compatibility with a wide range of DVD players mean the RIDATA printable disc is perfect for virtually any copying need where a cost-effective, customized disc face is desired.

Primera's Bravo II and BravoPro Disc Publishers are the world's first and only CD/DVD duplication and printing systems with 4800 dpi capability, USB 2.0 functionality, and AccuDisc(TM) Technology. Instead of copying and labeling discs one at a time, Bravo II is designed for hands-free, automatic production of up to 50 CDs or DVDs. BravoPro is a two-drive system with 100-disc capacity. The professional-grade Primera Signature Z6 CD/DVD printer offers six-color printing for true photo-quality output. It produces more natural looking photos, brighter and more vibrant colors, as well as more gradual smoothing of shades and gradations.
