Ultrium tape 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. Only apply labels as shown:
Operating and Storage Environment
To prevent condensation and for long life, the cartridge should only be operated or
stored as follows:
!
Operation: 10° C to 45° C (50° F to 113° F)
!
Day-to-day storage (in plastic container): 16° C to 32° C (60° F to 90° F)
!
Non-condensing relative humidity: 10% to 80% (operating), 20% to 60% (non-
operating)
!
Wet bulb temperature should not exceed 26° C (79° F)
Tapes intended for long-term storage should be stored in the plastic containers, at
temperatures between 5° C and 23° C (41° F and 73° F) and 20% to 60% relative
humidity.
Figure 4-6. Tape Labeling
IMPORTANT: The bar code label should only be applied as shown, with the alphanumeric
portion facing the hub side of the tape cartridge. Never apply multiple labels onto a cartridge
because extra labels can cause the cartridge to jam in a tape drive.
