command and:
• Set the Page Code field to 20h - Vendor Unique Page 20h
• Set Page Control field to 0 - Target to return current values for
the page code specified (20h)
Vendor Unique Page 20h, byte 2, bit 1 indicates the current drive

In host-initiated cleaning mode the host tracks all cleaning
cartridges and their use.
In automatic cleaning mode the library tracks all cleaning
cartridges and their use.
Although a maximum of ten cleaning cartridges may be present in
the Product Name, four or less are recommended to optimize
library performance. If more than ten cleaning cartridges are
present in the library at inventory, the library moves the additional
cartridges to the load port for manual unloading.
Cleaning cartridges have unique bar code labels that begin with
"CLN," (for example, CLN001).
