Setting the Write-Protect Switch 2
Each tape cartridge has a write-protect switch similar to that shown in
figure 18
. This switch determines whether new data can be written to the
cartridge (write-enabled) or whether data on the cartridge is protected
from being erased or overwritten (write-protected).
Proper Insertion Orientation 2
Refer to figure 18
for proper label placement, write protection settings
and insertion orientation.
Note: Only use bar code labels that have been designed for
cartridges. Do not adhere labels to a cartridge anywhere
except the slide-in slot.
