ASUS develops some of the fastest and sleekest CD/DVD copiers on the market. This company also offers internal and external options that are low on noise, and high on durability.
Due to the high cost that new copiers are now commanding more and more businesses are considering purchasing a used copier instead. In fact this may be the best idea that any business as a properly refurbished one can be a dependable part of any business for a long time to come. However, first we need to know what is a "properly refurbished copier"? It is more than just it being cleaned on the outside and making sure that it still works, but any "properly refurbished" copier will have been cleaned inside and out but also all worn parts will need to have been replaced and the machine should be inspected for any future potential problems.
When looking to purchase a used or second hand copier a business should keep away from the "multifunctional" kind (those that function as printer, scanner and fax as well as copier) as they are really only suitable from small businesses such as a home office, they are really not designed for multi person use and price per copy is higher compared to ones which have been specifically built for volume use.
Another important fact that must be taken into account when looking at purchasing a used or second hand machine is the amount of "mileage" it has done. All copiers possess a built in counter which tracks the total amount of usage and when the machine you have acquired has been delivered then check the counter against what the vendor states it is.
The first thing you have to consider is whether you want a CD copier that is free or one that comes with a price tag. There are several high quality CD copiers that usually run in the $75 - $100 price range, and can be downloaded direct from the company web site (a few examples being Roxio and Nero).
It is vital that you find a dealer you can trust and work with and if at all possible negotiate with the dealer regarding the warranty on the machine (usually they come with 30, 60 or 90 day warranties) but where at all possible never settle for a 30 day warranty it is important that even buying a used or second hand copier can be expensive and you should protect your investment as much as possible. It is also important to remember that such machines will need more maintenance than a new machine.
When looking at purchasing a used or second hand machine always buy one that has a maintenance agreement which covers all the parts which often wear or break out during their extended use such as belts and drums. Plus taking out insurance on such a purchase is definitely worth the cost with regard to having service coverage.
However, beware of the dealers who are selling machines "as is", for although the discounts available on such items may be higher, they often come without a warranty or with a warranty that is only about 2 weeks long. Even though you may find the price being offered is too hard to resist, you may find yourself spending more on it in the future in relation to repairs and maintenance costs.
By now, you can probably see that the PlexWriter PX-230A represents your best choice when considering an audio CD copier, but you are probably wondering about the cost. Well, this CD copier is one of the most affordable on the market, as it currently retails for $59.
