I've acquired a PV124T fitted with a LTO3 SCSI drive and single (left hand) magazine. I loaded 5 new HP LTO3 tapes with labels attached into the magazine but on running the inventory, the bar-code reader reports no or bad label for 3 of the tapes.The labels look fine to me (they are new HP labels that have been kept flat in their original packaging in a dark cupboard and the barcodes on two of the tapes are readable.
Before I try swapping tapes with ones from a PV132T, etc could this problem be due to a dirty scanner lens or lamp and if so, where is this located so that I can clean it?
