Ultrium Bar Code Labels
Ultrium cartridges have a recessed area located on the face of the cartridge next to
the write-protect switch. Use this area for attaching the adhesive-backed bar code
label (see Figure 17). Do not apply labels onto the cartridge except in this
designated area.
Caution: The bar code label should be applied as shown in Figure 19 with the
alphanumeric portion facing the hub side of the cartridge. Never apply
multiple labels onto a cartridge, because extra labels can cause the cartridge
to jam inside a tape drive.
