4 mm Autoloader Loading/unloading the magazine and cartridges
Loading cartridges into the magazine
V Use only “DDS Media Recognition System” cartridges in the drive.
Between one and six magnetic tape cartridges can be placed in any of the
magazine slots. It is recommended, however, to place the first cartridge in slot
1 because during a sequential backup the drive will attempt to load the first
cartridge from slot 1, by default.
Ê Place the required number of cartridges into the magazine with the arrows
on the cartridges pointing towards the center of the magazine.
I Magnetic tape cartridges and replacement magazines can be ordered
directly by calling your local office (see the chapter “Accessories” on
page 87 for the order numbers).
Applying light pressure, slide the magazine into the door-covered slot on the
front of the autoloader until the mechanism pulls it in automatically.

The autoloader will then check which magazine slots contain a cartridge.
