William,
To write to DLT Type IV Data Cartridges previously written by a DLT 40, DLT 70, and/or DLT 80, each data cartridge must first be degaussed before usage with a DLT VS80 or DLT1 Tape Drive or device. For new, unused media, this step is not necessary.
See for instance the following url for more information about degaussing:
http://www.periphman.com/degaussing/tape-degaussing/degaussing-erasing.shtml
It will require extra hardware.
best regards,
Kurt
