Epson R200 and PrintCD

Followed the instructions (starting at page 34). When I press "print" the
CD/DVD goes into the printer and comes right back out with the error "CD/DVD
tray not set correctly" Reload the tray then press the paper button on the
printer" Doesn't matter what I do or how I do it, I always get the same
result. Prints to premium glossy photo paper just fine. Won't print CD's.
Anybody have this problem and how did you fix it?
thanks

I have 2 R300s with over 700 CDs printed in each , one printer lately has
sometimes done as you describe.When printing with this particular printer
I hold the tray for a moment as it feeds into the printer [only
occasionally]if needed.

Your R200 should be returned and replaced for this problem....

You can also, take the clear plastic off the tapered end of the tray. That
can cause errors too.. I took it off mine and haven't had a problem since.

Sometimes, if I line up the two arrows, the printer fails to work
correctly. If however, I slide the the tray fully in until it stops,
everything works fine. This is the complete opposite to the way you
have found
I can only assume that there must be a slight variation between
printers, and the tray, and anyone having this problem should try out
both ways.

Regards,
John.

I had a similar problem. Turns out that the back side of my printer was
obstructed. It never occurred to me that the CD tray actually comes out
the back of the printer a full 4 inches or so during CD printing. The
CD tray was actually hitting the shelf behind my printer even though
from the front it appeared to be going in all the way. I had no clue.
Anyway, once I moved the printer away from the shelf it worked fine.
It's one more thing to check. Good luck.

Plus the tray has to be set a little more in, just past the Tray marks, about
2mm, 1/32"
