Sounds like you may have bad cartridges or downlevel microcode.
Do you have the 2X feature on your drives? There is a green 2X sticker on
the back and the internals of the drive are green instead of blue. I do not
know that the drive will stop you from mounting a K tape in a J only capable
drive. There was about 8 months that E1As were shipped without the K
capability.
If K tapes get jostled around a lot the labeling area on the tape gets
damaged. We had this happen to our tapes early in the K days, but not
recently. I can tell you, if you are having trouble labling these tapes now
you are going to have hard failures later.
Get your CE involved.
