Media label identifiers

Be sure to use the proper bar code labels for your drive technology. Table 5 lists the identifier that is found at the end of 7- or 8-character SDLT and Ultrium bar code labels.

Caution: To ensure that your bar codes meet HP’s quality standards, always purchase them from an approved supplier and never print bar code labels yourself. For more information, refer to the order form provided with the library, as well as the Bar Code Label Requirements, Compatibility and Usage white paper available from http://www.hp.com/support.
