Technically, burning a dual-layer disc is much more difficult than burning a single-layer disc, and this is where an up-to-date firmware comes into play: since your drive is old and firmware support for it was dropped long ago, it doesn't support the newer blanks you have. It does, however, support the Verbatim 2.4x (MKM-001-00 dye) DVD+R DL blanks because they've been around since forever, and by that I mean ever since dual-layer burning was available
So you can either try the jurassic Verbatim 2.4x DVD+R DL blanks or you'll need to buy a new burner in order to use the blanks you have.
