9-4 Automatically Copying Files to CD
Preparing a CD for Automatic Operations
For a Simple Trax session to run unattended you will need to have a CD
that is formatted and has a name for use in HP Simple Trax. To prepare
the CD you will:
■ Format it
■ Use Simple Trax to copy at least one file so you can give the CD a
name for use in the Simple Trax program
To prepare a CD for automatic operations:
1. Place the new CD into your CD-Writer Plus. After a few seconds a screen
will appear which asks you to "Please select the type of CD you wish to
create.”
2. Choose Click here to create a data CD that will be accessible through
a drive letter, i.e. as you would use a floppy drive. Follow the
instructions on the screen. When the CD is done formatting, continue
with the next steps.
3. Run Windows Explorer by clicking the Start button, pointing to
Programs, and clicking Windows Explorer.
4. Click the file or folder you want to copy to CD with the right mouse
button. A popup menu appears. On the popup menu, point to HP
Simple Trax and click Protect.
HP Simple Trax will now copy the selected file(s) and folder(s) to the CD
in your CD-Writer Plus and place information about the files into the
Simple Trax Index.
