Features
Three BravoPro Xi models are available:
- BravoPro Xi AutoPrinter 100-disc capacity, print-only version with no drives;
perfect for side-by-side use with tower-style disc duplicators.
- BravoPro Xi Disc Publisher 100-disc capacity with one recording drive.
- BravoPro Xi2 Disc Publisher 100-disc capacity with two recording drives.
BravoPro
Xi and Xi2 may also be ordered with the latest-generation Blu-ray Disc
recordable drives. With Blu-ray Disc drives you'll be able to record
high-definition video as well as perform back-ups of files, photos,
video and more. Both 25GB single-layer and 50GB dual-layer discs are
supported.
Blazingly Fast
The
main goal for the new BravoPro Xi-Series was to maximize throughput.
All parts of the process were carefully analyzed, including robotics,
disc picking and software. All have now been optimized for the fastest
possible production speeds.
The most
significant change has been to the disc transport robotics. Instead of
a lead screw, the robotic arm is belt-driven by a
microprocessor-controlled stepper motor. Belt drives are capable of
much faster throughput and in this case, about 300% faster!
Precise Disc Picking
Primera's
AccuDisc picking technology has always been the best in the business.
It uses patented, precision mechanics and software to know that it has
picked just one disc at a time. This prevents misfeeds and double discs
which can not only interrupt operation but can even damage recording
drives.
Now in its seventh generation,
AccuDisc has been further optimized for speed. As a result, disc
picking is up to 200% faster than before.
Professional-Grade Printing
The built-in, high-resolution inkjet printing is powered by Lexmark,
a world leader in printing technology. With up to 4800 dpi quality, it
has the highest printing resolution available from any manufacturer of
disc publishers - in fact, almost four times higher print resolution
than a leading competitor.
Combine this ultra high resolution printing with Primera's TuffCoat
with WaterShield CDs and DVDs and you'll get the most professional
looking discs, too. TuffCoat with WaterShield discs are highly water-,
scratch- and smudge-resistant. They also have a gorgeous, high-gloss
finish unlike anything you've probably ever seen before. Of course,
virtually all other brands of inkjet-printable optical media are also
supported.
Getting the Discs Out
In
some applications such as medical imaging and video/audio-on-demand it
is imperative that discs can be dispensed out the front of the unit. On
BravoPro Xi-Series, it's an automatic, built-in feature. On some
competitive units you have to manually open a door or a drawer every
time - a huge inconvenience if you're doing it all day long.
BravoPro Xi-Series also
has two software-selectable input bins. This means you can put 50 CDs
on the left and 50 DVDs on the right. Or put 50 DVDs on the left and 50
BD-Rs on the right. Whatever combination works for you, you'll save the
time and trouble of switching out media when a different type is
required for a particular job.
Powerful Software That's Easy to Use
Using the BravoPro Xi-Series is as easy as printing to any office
printer. Primera's exclusive PTPublisher Software, written by our own
software engineers, has won critical acclaim for its simple,
wizard-style interface. Training new operators takes just minutes
instead of hours.
Simply
choose the type of job you want to perform (data, video, audio, etc.),
match with a print file, and press "GO." It's that easy!
Built-in
disc design software called SureThing Primera Edition (Windows) or
DiscCover (Mac) lets you place photos, backgrounds, text and graphics
anywhere on the disc, including as far into the middle of the disc as
you wish - a major limitation with other brands of disc publishers.
Extra Value
You
get more for your money with BravoPro Xi-Series. In addition to the
included PTPublisher software for disc burning and printing, you also
get these valuable extra built-in software features:
PTRip: lets you robotically RIP your personal music CDs and load them into Apple iTunes for iPhone, iPod and iPod Touch or Microsoft Media Player.

PTBackUp:
automatic, scheduled back-ups of your files to CDs, DVDs or optional
25GB and 50GB Blu-ray Discs. Archival-grade TuffCoat branded optical
media is available from Primera.

PTProtect: With
a single mouse click, you can prevent unauthorized duplication of your
valuable DVD video files. Three free protections are included;
additional protections are available at a reasonable per-disc price.

Other
Primera-exclusive software features, including the first-ever iPhone
application for disc publishers, are currently under development.
Software updates are made available to registered users at no extra
charge.
The Most Illuminating Feature
Also
new to BravoPro Xi-Series is built-in blue LED lighting. The soft blue
glow not only helps you see what's going on inside, but pulses when
supplies are getting low and blinks on/off if an error condition is
reported. You'll always know the status of your jobs whether you're
sitting next to the unit or standing on the other side of the room.
Integration Made Easy
Sometimes
integration is required for applications like PACS/DICOM medical
imaging systems, law enforcement and surveillance video, back up and
archival, video and audio on-demand and more.
Primera
makes integration easy with its Software Developer's Kit (SDK) for both
Windows and Mac. The SDK is free to qualified developers. We're proud
to be the only company in our industry that actively supports 3rd-party
developers on Windows, Mac and even Linux.
Simply the Best
With
their fast throughput, superior print quality, valuable extra software
features, affordable price and per-disc costs, Windows and Mac
compatibility, SDK's and more, Primera's BravoPro Xi-Series Disc
Publishers are simply the best mid-sized disc publishers you can buy.
