Troubleshooting

Solution 1: Load a CD/DVD on the CD/DVD holder

Solution: Remove the CD/DVD holder from the CD/DVD tray. Load a printable disc onto the CD/DVD holder with the printable side up and reinsert the holder into the CD/DVD tray until the lines on the holder line up to the white lines on the tray.

Cause: You inserted the CD/DVD holder into the CD/DVD tray without loading a CD/DVD onto the holder.

If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 2: Load a CD/DVD with the printable side up

Solution: Remove the CD/DVD holder from the CD/DVD tray. Load a printable disc onto the CD/DVD holder with the printable side up and reinsert the holder into the CD/DVD tray until the lines on the holder line up to the white lines on the tray.

Cause: You loaded the CD/DVD upside down on the holder.

Solution: Ensure that there is at least 7.5 cm (3 inches) of space behind the product. Also, make sure that the slot on the back of the product is not blocked.

Before trying again, clean the CD/DVD holder to remove ink from the holder. This avoids ink contamination within the product, as well as protects your discs, hands, and clothing from stains later.

After the CD/DVD holder is clean and dry, load a new printable disc onto the holder with the printable side up. Leave the blue ring in its original location on the opposite side of the holder from your disc, as shown below. Reinsert the holder into the CD/
