The process for importing cleaning cartridges includes the following
steps:

station.

Cartridge Assignment
setting is enabled on the operator panel System
Settings
screen (Tools > System Settings).

Assign I/E screen appears, do the following:
a On the

b Select

Caution: Some host applications may fail import/export operations
when the I/E station contains cartridges that are assigned
to another partition. Move cartridges from the I/E station
as soon as possible to avoid possible conflicts with the
other partitions.
Note: If your library has zero I/E station slots, you cannot import or
export cleaning media. See Configuring
I/E Station Slots on
page 79.
Note: Once the import operation has started, do not interfere with
the operation by opening and closing the I/E station door.
Note: Do not insert cartridges into the I/E station during the restart
process.
