Appendix D: The Tape Cartridge
Quantum DLT 4000 Tape Drive
D-3
•
Do not expose the tape cartridge to moisture or direct sunlight.
•
Do not insert any cartridge that has been dropped into the
DLTtape drive without at least a thorough visual inspection as
described in this paper. A dropped cartridge may have dislodged,
loosened, or damaged internal components.
•
Avoid unnecessary opening of the cartridge door; this may expose
the tape to contamination or physical damage.
•
Do not attempt to remove a tape cartridge from the tape drive
unless the Operate Handle LED lights steadily and the drive’s beeper
has sounded its tone. Overriding the drive handle will cause
damage to both the media and the tape drive.
•
Do not use graphite pencils, water-soluble felt pens, or other
debris-producing writing instruments on your labels. Never erase a
label – replace it.
•
Make sure you place the unused cartridge labels in the protective
box so that you do not inadvertently pick them up along with the
cartridge during subsequent usage. A static electricity charge on a
cartridge may cause a label to cling to the cartridge. A label that is
accidentally inserted into the drive along with a cartridge can
prevent the hub reel and drive gear from meshing.
•
Maintain clean operating, working, and storage environments.
•
Follow all tape cartridge handling instructions that accompany your
cartridges or tape drive.
