Abstract
Optimum power control also known as OPC is performed while changing a recording speed and a recording laser power level. Signal recorded through the optimum power control is reproduced for measurement of reproduced signal quality. Recording speed achieving a recording laser power level that can provide reproduced signal quality falling within a predetermined acceptable range is displayed as a recommendable recording speed so that a user can set the displayed speed as a recording speed for use in actual recording.
