The recommended cleaning cartridges is the HP Ultrium universal cleaning cartridge, C7978A
(Orange). This cleaning cartridge is designed to work with any LTO Ultrium drive. It may be used
for up to 50 cleans.

NOTE:

The earlier HP Ultrium Cleaning cartridge, C7979A (Blue), is supported only on LTO

Ultrium 448 and Ultrium 232 tape drives (but not on LTO Ultrium 1760, Ultrium 3000 and Ultrium
6250 tape drives).

Do not use early, non-universal Ultrium cleaning cartridges from other manufacturers.

Data cartridges

LTO Ultrium tape drives use Ultrium tape cartridges. These are single-reel cartridges that match
your drive's format and are optimized for high capacity, throughput and reliability. Compatible
media can be recognized by the Ultrium logo, which is the same as the logo on the front of your
drive. Do not use other format cartridges in your tape drive and do not use Ultrium cartridges in
other format tape drives.

For optimum performance always use a data cartridge that matches the specification of your tape
drive, (see table below). A lower specification will have a lower transfer speed and may not support
write activities; a higher specification will not support read or write.
