The Compact And Affordable Amigo
Fills Out Rimage's Line of CD Publishing And Duplicating Systems
NEW YORK, 107th AES Convention,
Booth #480, Sept. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Rimage Corporation announced
today a new single-drive CD-Recordable (CD-R) duplicating system.
An extension of the company's Perfect Image® Producer 2000 family
of products, the new Producer 2000 Amigo is a compact, fully
automated CD recording and labeling solution designed for users
whose duplicating and publishing needs can be met with a single
recorder. Rimage is demonstrating the new Amigo at the 107th AES
Convention in booth #480.
Like Rimage's two- and
four-recorder systems, the Protege and Autostar, the new Amigo
features an 8X speed recorder, able to burn a full CD in less than
10 minutes. The Amigo also features Rimage's Prism CD printer, a
full-color thermal transfer printer that is the fastest and most
cost-effective printer in the industry. The Amigo is controlled by
Rimage's Perfect Image Producer 2000 software that manages and
automates the system's recording and printing, allowing the Amigo
to operate unattended.
"We're very excited to add the
Amigo to our product mix," said Ken Klinck, vice president of
sales and marketing for Rimage. "We continue to receive requests
from customers and potential customers who want the power of a
fully automated Rimage CD-R system, but who don't need the kind of
volume that two or four recorders provide. The compact and
affordable Amigo fills this need perfectly, and should make
automated CD publishing and duplicating systems available to whole
new markets."
The Producer 2000 Amigo system is
fully compatible with other members of the Producer 2000 family,
so all applications that have been written by Rimage ISV and VAR
partners can now be extended into much larger, more
price-sensitive markets. Like other members of the Producer 2000
family, the Amigo is intended for unattended 24x7 applications.
The Producer 2000 Amigo is
available immediately through Rimage's worldwide network of
distributors and value-added resellers and is priced under
$10,000.
Rimage's automated CD duplicating
and publishing systems are used in a variety of ways to distribute
digital information on CDs. Kodak's PictureCD system uses Rimage
CD-R technology to provide customers with an easy way to bring
conventionally captured images into the digital world. Many game
and software suppliers also employ Rimage systems for on-demand,
customized CD production, and Rimage systems are used in a number
of high-volume or just-in-time data distribution applications.
Minnesota-based Rimage Corporation
has been in business since 1978 and has operations in the United
States, Europe and Asia. The company's major products include
digital publishing and duplication systems for CD-R media serving
many diverse markets, including government, finance, health care,
software manufacturing and entertainment.
