TIP CAUTION Figure D-9 Drives and Media HP Ultrium Drives & Media Using Ultrium Cartridge Bar Code Labels Make it a practice to use bar code labels on your tape cartridges. Your host software may need to keep track of the following information and the associated bar code: • Date of format or initialization • Cartridge owner (such as a group or department) • Storage purpose If the host software does not keep track of this information, create a method for doing so. Ultrium cartridges have a recessed area located on the face of the cartridge next to the write-protect switch. Use this area for attaching the bar code label (Figure D-9). Do not apply labels onto the cartridge except in this designated area. The bar code label should be applied as shown in Figure D-9 with the alphanumeric portion facing the hub side of the tape cartridge. Never apply multiple labels onto a cartridge, as extra labels can cause the cartridge to jam in a tape drive. Proper Ultrium Label Position Drives & Media Appendix D D-23
