Finalization
The finalization process writes the TOC data (tracks,
etc.) for the disc in a special area on the disc called
the PMA.
After finalization
CD-Rs can be played in CD players. Even after
finalization, CD-RWs can only be played on CD
players that are compatible with CD-RWs.
For finalized CD-Rs, you cannot add more
recordings, place SKIP commands, or remove SKIP
commands.

Display after finalization
For CD-Rs, the display becomes that for CDs. For
CD-RWs, the display does not change, except that
FINALIZE is added.
Notes:
• Never turn off the power or remove the
power cord during finalization. Doing so
may damage all the data on the disc.
If the power is turned off by mistake or if a power
outage occurs, the remaining operations will
resume when power is turned back on. However,
there are times when the operations are not
properly resumed and the disc is not restored.
• Never finalize discs that are scratched, dirty, or
dusty. Doing so may prevent the process from
being properly completed. If the process does
not finish in 10 minutes, press the e button and
abort the process. This disc will not be able to be
played with normal CD players.
• During finalization, the operation button on the
CDR-205X will be disabled.
