I suspect he assumed you knew how to search for the word blank in the
cdrecord manual. In this case, you probably want to use:

cdrecord -blank=fast

This will result in an empty CD-RW with an open session.

The docs will explain the other variants.

Probably the former. See below.

> 1T speed low: 4 1T speed high: 10

This says you should choose a speed between 4 and 10 for this media.

>Drive current speed: 10
>Drive default speed: 10
>Drive max speed : 10
>Selected speed : 4

You are attempting to burn at 4X.

>Blocks total: 359848 Blocks current: 359848 Blocks remaining: 39926

This is the number of blocks you are trying to write. Since remaining is
positive, your ISO is not too large for the media.

> All clues appreciated.

See above. :-)
