Cleaning the tape drive
HP StorageWorks Ultrium tape drives do not require regular cleaning. An Ultrium universal cleaning
cartridge should only be used when the orange Clean LED is flashing.

other cleaning cartridges will not load and run.
To clean the tape drive:
1. Insert the Ultrium Universal Cleaning car tridge.
2. The drive will carry out its cleaning cycle and eject the ca rtridge on completion (which can take up
to 5 minutes). Du ring the cleaning cycle the orange Clean LED will be o n solidly and the green
Ready LED will flash.
Each HP Ultrium universal cleaning car tridge cleaning cartridge (C7978A) can be used up to 50
times with Ultrium tape drives. If the cleaning cartridge is ejected immediately with the Tape LED on,
it has expired.
Handling cartridges
