Problem with DDS 3 tape drive
I don't know how this happened but our HP3000 running MPE/IX 6.5 with an internal DDS3 tape drive has engaged as if the tape was in the drive, but it is not. Cannot insert a tape, and hitting the eject has no effect. I was going to take down the HP3000 and bring it back up to see if it releases, but would rather not. SHOWDEV shows tape drive avail. Any ideas.
Thanks

Re: Problem with DDS 3 tape drive
1- load a cleaning tape and let it cycle. if
light is still on ,
2- load a tape cartridge, let it load and then press and hold the eject button for about 6 secs. This should reset and eject the tape.
Hope it helps.
