Eject the Cleaning 
Tape 3
You need to eject the cleaning tape from the SuperLoader under the 
following conditions:
• If you do not want to store the cleaning tape in a magazine slot after 
manually cleaning the tape drive (DLT/SDLT only)
• If the cleaning tape has expired
When the tape has been used up, 
Cleaning Tape Expired appears on the 
front panel LCD. If you store your cleaning tape, store a new cleaning 
tape after you eject the expired one (see Manual Cleaning (DLT/SDLT 
Only)).
