3.
Make sure that you have loaded the cartridge with the correct orientation (see
).
4.
Check for damage to your media and discard it, if it is damaged.
5.
Use a new or known, good piece of media and see if it loads. If it does, the original cartridge
is faulty and should be discarded.
6.
Check if another LTO Ultrium drive of the same model will accept the cartridge. If it does,
the original drive may be faulty. Before calling customer service, check that the tape drive
is responding. See
