Note: Always use the cleaning tape cartridge to clean the drive. Do not use
cleaning solvents or attempt to service the tape drive head.
The cleaning tape cartridge can be used 20 times. When the drive
detects that a cleaning tape has expired, the drive rewinds and unloads
the tape; CLN is displayed. If the cleaning routine is run on a cleaning
tape that has not expired, CLN is cleared from the OCP after the tape
rewinds and unloads. The CLN message is cleared when the tape drive
successfully completes a cartridge calibration routine after a retry.
To limit cleaning tape use:
Avoid touching leaders and media with bare fingers. Oils and
•
grease from the skin are especially damaging and may cause drive
failures that require drive replacement.
Maintain a clean work area for any DLTtape product to ensure
•
drive reliability.
Select a site away from line printers and cardboard boxes.
•
Follow handling and storage guidelines supplied with each
•
cartridge.
