No, there's no need when you clear the OPC history as far as I know.
I did the same as funksoulb recommends. He has a burning guide in the tutorial sticky.

My personal recommended settings for Verbatim MKM-003-00 discs (based on Lightning UK's settings): -
Fire up EEPROM Utility, make sure you select the correct burner if you own more than one, then click on the Options tab. Clear the OPC history and power cycle the drive (just reboot your PC) if you've used other settings previously that haven't worked for you, then enable the following options: -
Do NOT enable Over Speed Writing or Online Hyper Tuning.
That only needs to be done once, then you can burn MKM-003-00 discs at 4X with OPC off and you should find that the results are excellent. These settings may also improve burn quality with other media so experiment with them and see how it goes.
