• Store cartridges in an appropriate environment.
Store cartridges according to the temperature and other surrounding
conditions written on the package. Also, try to keep the temperature and
humidity of the environment constant. Store cartridges out of the direct sun
rays. Do not store them near heating systems. Never place cartridges on a
dashboard or in the glove compartment of a car.
• Store cartridges where there is little dust.
Eliminate sources of dust. Prohibit eating, drinking and smoking near the
storage location. Also, do not store cartridges near copying machines or
printers that emit toner and paper dust.
• When storing cartridge, set the erase-protection tab so that the data cannot be
over written.
• After removing a cartridge from the library, store it in an appropriate location
as soon as possible.
Avoid, as much as possible, changes of temperature and humidity,
contamination by dust and scratches made by touching the interior tape.
Perform the following periodically.

resulting in fire or other damage. Periodically clean the air filter. For
