C1 errors are less severe than C2 errors. Generally, something isn't as it should be if you are seeing any C2 errors.
AFAIK, C1 errors are all correctable (by whatever drive reads the disc). You can expect to see some C1 errors on any disc you burn; no burner is good enough to create recordings with no C1 errors. If you use good media on a good recorder, you will probably have less C1 errors on the discs that you record than normal pressed CDs do.
Some C2 errors are correctable, and some are not. They are more serious, and, as I said before, you shouldn't ever see any C2 errors.
