Required Location for the Cleaning Cartridge
If you run the cleaning cartridge manually, there are no restrictions about the location of
the cleaning cartridge. However, if you want to use the Auto Clean option, you must
reserve one or more slots in the magazine by using the Reserved Slots option described in
Chapter 2, “Installation”
. Any reserved slots in the magazine become inaccessible to the
host software. In these cases, the LoaderXpress designates these inaccessible slots as
cleaning cartridge slots. On line 4 of the control screen “Cleaning Slot 1” appears instead of
“Slot1.” If you have reserved slots, Cleaning Slot 1 is the first reserved slot in the
magazine.
Installing a Cleaning Cartridge
1) Examine the Default Screen on the Control Panel to determine whether a
cartridge is loaded into the drive. If so, then unload it as described in
Chapter 3,
“Operation”
.
2) Remove the magazine from the LoaderXpress using the procedure described in
Chapter 3 - Operation ,
Removing the Magazine

Cleaning Slot 1 (the first reserved slot in the magazine).
