Specifies the characteristics of 90 mm Optical Disk Cartridges (ODC) with a capacity of 230 Mbytes per Cartridge. Also specifies three related, but different implementations of such cartridges, viz. Type R/W, Type P-ROM, Type O-ROM. Also specifies the conditions for conformance testing and the Reference Drive; the environments in which the cartridges are to be operated and stored; the mechanical and physical characteristics of the cartridge; the format of the information on the disk, both embossed and user-written; the characteristics of the embossed information on the disk; the magneto-optical characteristics of the disk; the minimum quality of user-written data on the disk, enabling data processing systems to read data from the disk.
