I have an HP8100+ (8100i) writer . I have not d/l or tried to burn these ISOs yet, so I don't have results to compare.
After reading your post, I checked the HP website and found that the 'claim' to support 80 min (700MB) CDs, but add the disclaimer that they recommend using HP 80 min CDs. http://h20015.www2.hp.com/en/document.jhtml?reg=&cc=&prodId=hpcd-write9675&lc=en&docName=lpg40817 I would be most interested in hearing if others with this version of CD writer have the same problem you do.
