Most lasers for CD-R burners are between a specified power range determined by the manufacturer. CD-R discs have a section outside the standard recording area called the Power Calibration Area, which is used to adjust the laser for the brand of media you are using. The error indicates that the CD-R recorder is having trouble calibrating the power setting. This could be caused by defective media or the recorder itself has a problem.
