Figure D-3 Opening the Door on a DLTtape Cartridge Showing Tape Leader Loop in its
Correct Position
Open the door by holding the DLTtape cartridge as shown in Figure D-3.
On the right side corner of the tape cartridge there is a small tab in a cut-out
portion of the cartridge. Using your thumb, gently lift up on the tab and swing the
door open (Figure D-3).
Inside the door, you will see the tape and cartridge leader loop. The loop should
stick up about an eighth of an inch when viewed from the edge; the loop must be
a closed loop.
If the loop is torn, bent, pulled in, or not sticking up about an eighth
of an inch, do not use the tape cartridge.
