Reset Switch
The emergency reset switch allows you to reset the drive without powering off
the drive and computer, for example if the drive stops responding. Access to
the switch is through a small hole. It can be activated by a thin object, such as
the end of a straightened paper-clip.
Loading a Cartridge
Use HP Ultrium cartridges with your drive.
1 Insert the cartridge into the slot in front of the drive with
the white arrow uppermost and facing the drive door.
2 Apply gentle pressure on the rear of the cartridge until
the drive takes the cartridge and loads it.
The Ready LED flashes green while the drive performs its
load sequence. When the cartridge is loaded, the Ready
LED shows steady green.
Do not try to force the cartridge if it does not load
properly. The drive will eject the cartridge after about
10 seconds so you can load it again.
Unloading a Cartridge
1 Press the Eject button on the front panel.
During the unload sequence the READY LED flashes
green. The drive completes any task it is currently
performing, winds the tape to the beginning and ejects
the cartridge. Once the tape has rewound, the eject cycle
will take less than 13 seconds.
2 Remove the cartridge and store it in its plastic case in a
cool, dry atmosphere.
