With new automated operational upgrades, labeling, and packing list functions, Data/Ware CD represents the premier, high-end automated application suite that is tailored toward the conversion of mainframe, data center, and enterprise information (print files, databases, images, etc.) onto CD-R media. Luminex's Unix and Mainframe-based customers have been migrating to this efficient and cost effective CD concept for nearly seven years.

Additional CD viewer support for CD libraries, called our Data/Bank Library product, has also been added to enhance the storage and retrieval capacity of vast amounts of archived data. This CD viewer enhancement coupled with a larger disc capacity configuration positions the Data/Ware CD system as a perfect solution for the enterprise customer.

Some of the new Data/Ware CD enhancements include:

· Bar-code labeling for media tracking

· Disaster recovery and fault-tolerant features

· Print quality options

· Flexible job creation and scheduling

· Enhanced job verification options.

"With 17 new enhancements in total since the previous release, Data/Ware CD 4.0 provides customers with the latest in CD automation, efficiency and reliability," said Julie Filanc, product manager for Luminex. "By incorporating these changes, Luminex Software continues to offer the most advanced CD creation system on the market today."
