The Life Expectancy of Cleaning Cartridges
A cleaning cartridge typically has a service life of 50 cleaning sessions. Before start- ing the cleaning process, make sure that the tape in the cleaning cartridge has not been used up.
If you leave a cleaning cartridge permanently in the magazine, be sure to keep good records on the frequency of usage of the cartridge to avoid using it more times that it should be used for.
The cleaning cartridge has reached the end of its service life once all the tape in the cartridge has moved onto the right reel.
NOTE:
If an expired cleaning cassette is used to clean the heads, “Clean Fail” appears on the LCD panel.
