How do you get a label out of an optical drive that has come off a CD?
The best thing would have been prevention - it is a common mistake to attach inappropriate labels to CDs/DVDs, only to have them flung from the spinning disc right into the workings of the optical drive. The only label that should be attached to an optical disc is the kind designed to be attached to an optical disc. However, now that the label has taken up residence inside your PC's optical drive, you have two approaches to removing it. You can try to snag whatever you are able to see/reach of the label with a pair of tweezers. This will be difficult and you must beware of damaging components inside the drive. It would be far easier (if not as apparently simple) to remove the drive from the PC and strip its housing- the label or its many sticky little bits will be plainly visible and easy to remove.
