DR043: Resolve Invalid Cleaning Cartridge
Problem:
While performing inventory, the library determined that an invalid cartridge is occupying a cleaning slot.
In order for a cartridge to be a valid cleaning cartridge, it must be imported as a cleaning cartridge via the library
operator interface.
It is likely that this invalid cartridge was manually inserted while the library was powered OFF or when the main
access door was opened.
Troubleshooting Steps:
1. You can determine the bar code label of the invalid cleaning cartridge and the coordinate where it is located by
selecting the Details button.
2. Open the library main access door(s) and remove this cartridge.
3. A valid cleaning cartridge should be imported into the library to allow cleaning operations to function properly.
