Using Cleaning Cartridges

Scalar i2000 User's Guide
Most tape drives require occasional cleaning. A cleaning cartridge cleans
accumulated debris from the tape drive and the read/write head.
CAUTION
Backup applications or archive software applications use different
techniques to automate the process of cleaning drives. These tools specify
cleaning cycles based on cycle counts of the drive, drive requests, or
regularly scheduled intervals.
