Chapter 2 2-7
Figure 2-1 Leader in Correct Position, Hub, and Door Lock Tab
Do NOT Use DLT Cartridges with:
• Tape or leaders that have been touched with bare fingers (may
transfer oils to the tape head).
• Labels used on the top, bottom, sides, or back of the cartridge. Use the
label slot only.
CAUTION Always discard damaged tape cartridges. If a defective tape cartridge is
loaded into a tape drive, it may in turn damage the drive, potentially
requiring drive replacement.
