Replacing the cleaning cartridge
To replace the cleaning cartridge when it is used up, use the Remove Cartridge and Insert Cartridge options on the Maintenance Menu and the entry/exit port. Set the source and destination to 0, which is the element index of the fixed cartridge slot. (See page 73 for complete instructions.)
➤Important If you are using Exabyte Mammoth tape drives, use an Exabyte Mammoth 8mm Cleaning Cartridge (or a cleaning cartridge approved by Exabyte for use with Mammoth).
If you are using Eliant 820 tape drives, use an Exabyte Premium 8mm Cleaning Cartridge (or an 8mm cleaning cartridge approved by Exabyte for use with your tape drive).
The Mammoth tape drive ejects all other 8mm cleaning cartridges, and the Eliant 820 tape drives eject the Mammoth 8mm Cleaning Cartridge.
