Hi,
Hopefully you can help. I have been getting this error message when I've tried to burn a Data CD in Finder, and a music CD in iTunes. I am not much of an expert in computers, however I am familiar enough to know that sometimes re-installing the driver solves the problem (as with most PC's), however it seems to me that it does not work that way with my G4 powerbook (with OSX 10.4.11). Here is the info on my device:
MATSHITA CD-RW CW-8121:
Firmware Revision: AA21
Interconnect: ATAPI
Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipped/Supported)
Cache: 2048 KB
Reads DVD: Yes
CD-Write: -R, -RW
Burn Underrun Protection CD: Yes
Write Strategies: CD-TAO, CD-SAO
Media: No
Now, I have had this computer for a while, and I have, in the past, successfully burned CD's (both Data & Music). I have found it hard to find any type of information on the device, its drivers and much less on this error code. I read an entry on this website, with the same error code, but the information did not seem to help me. I tried to follow the steps in described in the entry and this is what I get from my console logs:
Finder: Burn started, Fri Jul 11 01:58:01 2008
Finder: Burning to CD-R media with SAO strategy in MATSHITA CD-RW CW-8121 AA21 via ATAPI.
Finder: Requested burn speed was 8x, actual burn speed is 8x.
Finder: Burn underrun protection is supported, and enabled.
Finder: Burn failed, Fri Jul 11 01:58:54 2008
Finder: Burn sense: 5/2C/00 Illegal Request, Command sequence error
Finder: Burn error: 0x80020022 The device failed to respond properly, unable to recover or retry.
My initial error reads like this:
Burning the disc failed because communication to the disc
drive failed. (Error code 0x80020022)
The burn process goes through fine (recognizes blank cd, asks for speed, copy data) but when is about to burn, I get the error and it spits out the CD.
Please any help is greatly appreciated or pointing me to right direction.
Thanks.

p.s. I've tried different brand CD's and slower burn speeds and I get the same results. In addition closing all open applications and re-starting the laptop.
