As a result, this extremely cost-effective 11" x 17" printer provides a stunning combination of bold business color and high productivity that is ideal for smaller workgroups.
Advantages: 4 in one drive Disadvantages: price, speed
...I bought my ricoh on advice from a friend and have from it good advice.
The recorder is one of the new range of so called 4 in one drives, a cd player writer re-writer and dvd player.
The ricoh is not the fastest recorder currently on the market but fast enough for my needs with writing at 6 speed and re-writing at 4 speed.
The ricoh can overburn cd's a practice i find very useful in getting that extra few megabytes.
It comes packaged with nero (version 4 in my case) which is a good authoring package and met my needs.
I am very satisfied with this cd-writer/dvd player...

...Reliable Performer:
The Ricoh Mp7125a with just link (Ricoh’s name for burn proof) this is a good reliable performer, a well-built unit supplied with Nero 5 writing software.
After 6 months of daily use I have yet to have a buffer underun, for a price of just under £100 this machine is well worth considering. I actually paid about £30 more than this when I bought mine.
As with other Ricoh CD-RW drives, maintains a maximum read speed of 32x for CD-R and CD-RW media, as well as for CD-ROM.
Because CD-RW media has a lower reflectivity than CD-ROM or CD-R media, amplification circuits are more susceptible to noise. This fact causes difficulties with high-speed CD-RW reading, and currently most CD-ROM drives, even 40x drives, can only read CD-RW media at about 20x at best.
However, Ricoh have succeeded in minimizing circuit noise...

Advantages: High read speed. Fast write for CD recordable and rewritable. Disadvantages: None found so far
...Artec, Not a name i was familiar with until my ricoh cd writer decided to give up the ghost and wouldnt read or write.
Although not very expensive (cost about £30 on ebay) has been very reliable and takes minutes to write a full compact disk.
Comparing it to my old drive there are the following differences:
Ricoh MP7080A:
8 x Write Speed
4 x CD rewritable Speed
32 x Read Speed
4MB Data buffer
IDE interface
Artce 52x32x52:
52 x Write Speed
32 x CD rewritable speed
52x Read Speed
2mb Data buffer (with burnproof / justlink - avoids making coasters of CDs)
IDE interface
The one main advantage of this drive is the buffer under run protection - my old ricoh drive would have to be left to write a cd with nothing else running.
The artec can have lots going on whilst writing a CD - can browse the internet and play games at the same time...

Picked this up nearly 3 months ago now as my third compact digital after having a kodak for my first then a canon IXUS 500 after that.
I also shoot with a Canon EOS 300d so was looking for great image quality, and a general upgrade from my IXUS.

The first thing many readers will think when looking at this review is "oh my god" how ugly is that camera?", and possibly as a secondary thought, "who the hell are Ricoh, didn't he once manage Arsenal?". The answers to these questions are so obviously... more
