3.
Carefully push the cartridge in a bit further until it engages
with the drive mechanism. Once the cartridge is correctly
loaded, it protrudes about 12 mm from the drive.
Removing a cartridge
1.
Check that the cartridge is not being accessed by the computer
(the drive’s activity indicator must be unlit).
2.
Pull the cartridge carefully out of the drive slot, holding it
between thumb and forefinger.
3.
Return the cartridge to its plastic holder. This protects the
cartridge and prevents dust from collecting on the surface of
the tape.
Write-protecting a cartridge
A cartridge can be write-protected by sliding the red switch on the
cartridge to the locked position (marked with a closed padlock
symbol) as shown below.
