fs=INT refers to the FIFO size of the data pipe, especially for use when
your ISO is not read from disk, as yours so manifestly is, but directly
from mkisofs(8). If you don't get data underruns (cdrecord will tell you
if you do) don't set fs=INT: it has a default size.

driveropts=burnproof

I assume this is a typo, as the manpage specifies as options only
burnfree, noburnfree, varirec=value, audiomaster, forcespeed,
noforcespeed, tattooinfo and tattoofile=name. Does your CD-R have
the BurnFree feature?

-pad

According to the docs, -nopad is the default, and -pad is a default
value of -padsize=INT, used for making audio CDs.

-useinfo

Another audio CD-only feature.
