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

CD/DVD onto the holder.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

avoids ink contamination within the product, as well as protects your discs, hands,
and clothing from stains later.
