Inserting and Removing Tapes
Grip and insert your tape minicartridge as illustrated below. Push past the
spring resistance of the drive until the minicartridge snaps into place, leaving
about 3 cm (about one and one-quarter inches) still outside the drive. To
remove the tape minicartridge from the drive, grip as before and pull it straight
out of the drive. Do not remove the minicartridge if the drive activity light is
on and blinking. Remove tapes when not in use.
