Hi, I stripped the printer down ;-) found a micro switch which i would have thought was the problem, however its not, Just ended up buying a second hand R300, must have printed over 10,000 CD with this printer, so no worrys about spending £25 for another one.
If any want the epson r300 manula for free, just email me at

Hi Chillyslade,

Try this..

Close the CD/DVD guide, then press the maintenance button.
If the CD/DVD tray is inserted, remove the CD/DVD tray, then close the CD/DVD guide

Hope this works, kindly let me know by providing your valuable rating.

Thanks,
Robosoft.
