Problems w ith drive operation
If you have been successfully operating the application software
and autoloader in the past, but are now experiencing problems
reading and writing data, check the following:
✔
Write-protect switch . If you are writing data, make sure the
cartridge is write enabled (see page 18 ).
✔
Cartridge type . Use the appropriate cartridges for your drive.
See “Selecting cartridges” beginning on page 11 for
information about selecting the appropriate cartridges for the
drive in your autoloader. Because of media management and
application software issues, do not mix different types of
cartridges in the autoloader. If you must mix cartridge types,
contact your software vendor.
✔
Cartridge age . If the cartridge has been in use for a long time
or if it has been used frequently, try using a new cartridge.
✔
Cleaning . Clean the drive as required. See “Cleaning the
drive” beginning on page 76 for more information. Make sure
you are using the recommended cleaning cartridge for your
drive.
