2. Power the tape drive off and on, then retry the operation that produced the error. The error

3. If the problem persists, download new firmware and retry the operation; if new firmware is not
available, replace the tape drive.

To prevent damage to the drive or tape, the drive will not allow you to insert a cartridge if the
current cartridge was successfully ejected. If the problem persists, replace the tape drive. The error
code may clear when you cycle power to the tape drive or place it in maintenance mode.
