Using Ultrium Cleaning Cartridges
HP Ultrium drives should only be cleaned if the clean drive icon displays on the
tape library status bar. Only use appropriately formatted data cartridges and
approved cleaning cartridges (see Table 7 on page 72), and follow the
instructions for Cleaning a Drive on page 87. In general, replace cleaning
cartridges after fifteen uses. Marking the label on the cleaning cartridge after
each use will help you keep track of the number of uses.
Caution Excessive use of the cleaning cartridge can cause unnecessary
wear on the drive head. The tape library front panel will display
a message when the cleaning cartridge needs to be replaced.
