I had this happen to me once.... after a lot of frustration, this is
what I found.

If you are using the 250MB zip disks under a bright light (mine is a
halogen lamp) it will cause the disk to eject as soon as you put it in.
This does not happen if you are using the 100MB disks.

If you are having this problem with a 250MB zip disk, take it out of the
bright light for a couple of hours and try it again.

==========
When I insert a zip diskette into my zip drive, my computer ejects it.

I cannot therefore back up my files.

Previously everything was fine.  This "rejection/ejection" has begun
happening recently.

Can anyone help??
