Care of the Drive and Tape Cartridges
Cleaning the Tape Heads
4-3
5
Remove the cleaning cartridge.
6 Write a cross in a box on the cleaning cartridge label.
This records how many times you have used the cartridge. Discard it after
20 uses.
7 Return the cleaning cartridge to its plastic case.
If the “Use Cleaning Tape” light still lights when you load a tape
cartridge after using the cleaning cartridge:
• Make sure that the cleaning cartridge had not expired when you tried to
clean the heads.
• The tape cartridge may be faulty. Try another cartridge and see if “Use
Cleaning Tape” lights again.
If the “Use Cleaning Tape” light flashes while a tape cartridge is
loaded:
The tape cartridge may be damaged. Proceed as follows:
1 If possible, make a copy of any data on the cartridge you want to preserve
onto a new cartridge.
To do this, load the cartridge and restore the data to a temporary directory
on your hard disk. Then back up this temporary directory to a new tape
cartridge.
Alternatively, if the data still exists on your hard disk, simply back it up to
a new tape cartridge directly.
2 Discard the old tape cartridge.
Even if the cartridge appears to work satisfactorily (despite the “Use
Cleaning Tape” light flashing), do not continue to use it. You put your data
at risk and will probably need to use the cleaning cartridge far too often.
