Unloading a Cartridge

3

Follow these steps to unload a cartridge (see 

).  

Press the 

 button (or issue an appropriate system software 

command).
The tape drive completes any active writing, then rewinds. The 

middle LED flashes as the media rewinds. When the media is 

finished rewinding, the tape drive ejects the cartridge and the middle 

LED lights steadily.

Never turn off the tape drive or the host while the tape 

drive contains a cartridge. Failure to remove a cartridge 

prior to power-off may result in cartridge or tape drive 

damage. 

Do NOT rush removal of the cartridge. Wait until the tape 

drive ejects the cartridge and the middle LED lights steady 

before removing the cartridge.
