Do NOT Use DLT Cartridges with:

Tape or leaders that have been touched with bare fingers (may transfer oils to the tape head).

Labels used on the top, bottom, sides, or back of the cartridge. Use the label slot only.

Caution Always discard damaged tape cartridges. If a defective tape cartridge is loaded into a tape drive, it may in turn damage the drive, potentially requiring drive replacement.
