Do not use discs that have lens cleaner, CD/DVD labels or stickers, or condensation on
them. Doing so may result in an malfunction or failure.
Do not use a cracked, warped, or deformed disc. The disc may break into pieces inside
the product, resulting in a malfunction, or an injury when the disc is taken out.
Writing (reading) may not be performed properly if a disc has a slight scratch or is dirty.
Be sufficiently careful when handling discs.
Depending on the discs used, writing may not be able to be performed properly at the
speed recommended for the disc. If this happens, write at a slower speed. In particular,
we recommend writing to DVD±R DL at a slow speed.
Disc quality may affect write quality. We recommend using EPSON specified CDs/DVDs.
Epson offers the specified CD-R and DVD-R discs for all your printing needs.
See EPSON Total Disc Maker Help for details on writable disc types.
