For SDLT I media barcodes, the library dynamically supports 1 to 14
characters for volume serial number plus a one-character media type
identifier. The image below is an example of a supported SDLT I barcode
label.
For SDLT II media barcodes, the library dynamically supports 1 to 14
characters for volume serial number plus a one-character media type
identifier. The image below is an example of a supported SDLT II barcode
label.
For DLT-S4 media barcodes, the library dynamically supports 1 to 14
characters for volume serial number plus a one-character or two-character
media type identifier. The media identifier can be either “4” or “S4”.
Quantum-supplied barcode labels will provide the best results. Barcode
labels from other sources can be used, but they must meet the following
requirements:
• ANSI MH10.8M-1983 Standard
• Number of digits: 6+1 (DLT) or 6+2 (LTO)
• Background reflection: greater than 25 percent
• Print contrast: greater than 75 percent
• Ratio: greater than 2.2
• Module: 250 mm
• Print tolerance: ± 57 mm
Additional Requirements:
• Height of the visible portion of the barcode: 10 mm ±2 mm
