Cleaning Ultrium tape drives
Be aware of the following:
• Ultrium tape drives have been developed to have a minimal cleaning requirement.
• An HP Ultrium universal cleaning cartridge can be used up to 50 times. If you are using an older HP
Ultrium cleaning cartridge, check the documentation that came with your media.
CAUTION: Only use HP Ultrium universal cleaning cartridges in Ultrium 460 or Ultrium 960 tape drives.
See ”Ordering HP tape cartridges and bar code label packs” on page 123 for obtaining supplies. The
same cleaning cartridge is used for all Ultrium drives.
• If the cleaning cartridge is ejected immediately, it has expired, or is not an Ultrium cleaning cartridge,
discard it and use a new one.
To clean the tape heads:
1. Move a cleaning cartridge into the drive using your application software. The tape drive automatically
loads the cartridge and cleans the heads. The cleaning cycle can take up to five minutes.
2. Move the cleaning cartridge back to the proper storage bin using your application software.
