There is a problem with the barcodes though. They use a Dymo Label writer to write their own barcodes, just as they did with their MSL6030 before this library.
Tapes that work fine in the MSL6030 report no barcode in MSL4048! We have tried several different variations, but cannot seem to find where the problem is comming from.
Anyone have any tips or clue as to why the new library does not wish to recognize the printed barcode labels?
Sadly enough I do not have any HP branded barcodes at hand.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: MSL4048 Barcode issue
here is a nice document regarding Barcodes:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00517361/c00517361.pdf
Barcodes for the different library models are not standarized, which the barcode itself is, but not where to put it, how to print, etc..
The document helps to get a faster working solution and sometime it might be faster and in the end cheaper to take the recommanded and tested solution.
Another short warning, there is a known issue with this Library and there is an Advisory available for it: Barcode Labels Beginning With "NR" are Not Read or are Listed as "Full" in HP StorageWorks MSL2024, MSL4048, and MSL8096 Libraries and the 1/8 G2 Tape Autoloaders.
Hope this helps,
Ralf.

Re: MSL4048 Barcode issue
I think that the Dymo labels are indeed too glossy and that that causes the problems.
The client has decided to order labels at HP and leave it at that, to make sure any further problems are avoided.
Again, thank you for your replies, they helped a lot!
