Labeling an Optical Disk Cartridge

Make it a practice to label your optical disk cartridges. You are provided

adhesive labels with each disk for this purpose. Here are some

suggestions for labeling:

Your jukebox application software may label your optical disk slot

locations differently. Use your application to check disk locations prior to

labeling the disks.

• storage slot location (1, 2, 3, ... )

• date of format or initialization

• disk owner (group, department, etc.)

• storage purpose (backup, old version of operating system, etc.)

HP recommends using end labels as shown in Figure 2-1. End labels

reduce the chance of label material interfering with the cartridge shutter

and causing a drive to jam.

Labels used in the vicinity of the shutter may cause the drive to jam if

the label is installed incorrectly or if portions of the label lift off because

of wear. If a drive jams because the label interferes with the shutter, a

service call may be necessary.
