Unattended CD-R Duplication
Four CD-R Drives
150 Disc Hopper Capacity!
Supports Virtually All CD-R Formats
Built in Hard Drive for Image Storage
Simple "Photo-copier" Style Operation

Super Industrial Design

Introducing the Ashby Impression 4040 Series Automatic CD-R Duplicator. Now the same patented Gravity Feed Design that has made Ashby Floppy Disk Duplicators the reliable production solution since 1983, makes the Impression 4040 the ultimate choice for CD-R production today. No servo, stepper or DC motors. No belts, gears or pulleys. In fact, no robotics at all. Industrial all aluminum construction and bulletproof pneumatic operation is clean and simple, intended for the long, long haul. Rugged enough to withstand 24/7 operation, yet quiet enough for the office media room, the Impression 4040 is as easy to use as the office photocopier, but has all the features needed for professional duplicators. The 150 disc hopper capacity means unattended operation for up to 3 times as long as the competition. Upgradable firmware means support for the fastest drives as they become available. The wait for an ultra-reliable CD-R production alternative is over.
