My writer was giving a similar error when the media was bad. I have a samsung writer as well. Did you try changing the media? Also Samsungs writer does not work with certain media (eg Imation). I still have not been able to figure out why.
It is not media, cause i have tried different medias. Further, after some attemps, cd writer works by itself no matter which media I used. I am also using 'SAMSUNG ' 'CDRW/DVD SM-308B' 'T100' Removable CD-ROM.
All this error started after I gave -multi option, earlier it used to work fine.
