I spoke too soon. It looks like one of those one shot options that you can
use to do an operation once. Shame.

The other thing you could do would be to label a batch of new tapes en
masse into a "scratch" pool with "recycle to other pools" set, then
set "recycle from other pools" on all other pools. Make all these
recyclable after labelling. You could then turn AMM off if you wish.
