I've have this printer about a year, and been happily printing CDs all that
time, then suddenly last week it stopped working.

Every time I insert the tray, it just spits it out again.

I'm getting this message:

"The CD-R tray is not inserted or a printable disc is not placed on the CD-R
Tray.
Insert the CD-R tray with a printable disc in the Inner Cover and then press
the RESUME button.
Printing will then restart."

Any ideas what the problem might be?

TIA

My first guess would be the reflectors. see if you have three silver
squares, or if one of the 5.5mm squars might have become warn, in
particular the one close to being flush to the tray surface.

If so, I believe a dab of white-out would resolve the issue.

I have personaly tested white-out and some oil based white primer...
forget the exact brand but silver is not required.
