Hello.   The library.

I put tape on the door (the i/o hopper...ours holds 6 tapes) of the DS3512, 
closed the hopper, then using the little gui on the DS3512, I choose the 
library I want them checked into.  Then I hit 'insert media', picked the tape 
from the list and hit ok.  (heard the arm grab the tape and put somewhere in 
the library).
Came back to the admin server and typed my checked in command.

Where are these tapes you want to label?  In the library or in the I/O hopper?
