Using the Cleaning Cartridge
When the Clean/Media LED is on, the DLT VS 40/80 GB tape drive read/write
head may need to be cleaned.
Insert the cleaning cartridge as you would a data cartridge. See “Inserting a
Cartridge.” Cleaning typically takes several minutes during which the Ready LED
blinks.
You should only use DLT 1/DLT VS Cleaning Cartridges, which are a smoky-gray
color. Inappropriate cleaning tapes are immediately ejected.
Caution: Do not use a DLT Cleaning Tape III, which is a cream color
(p/n 199704-001 or C5142A).
Use only HP-approved DLT 1/DLT VS Cleaning Cartridges (p/n 279839-B21
or C7998A). Use of any other type of cleaning cartridge can damage the tape
drive read/write head.
Each cleaning cartridge has a useful life of 20 cleanings. The cleaning cartridge
includes a label with 20 small boxes printed on it. Always place a check mark in a
box each time you use the cartridge to clean the drive. Replace the cleaning
cartridge when all boxes are checked.
When the cleaning cartridge has cleaned the read/write head, the Clean/Media
LED turns off and the drive ejects the cleaning cartridge.
Note: If any LEDs blink or if the Clean/Media LED is illuminated again when you
insert another cartridge immediately after cleaning, see Table 2 for more information.
