Hi

I have a problem in using some used tapes from some small old libraries =
=3D
that didn't have a barcode reader.
I want to use these tapes in a small Dell library with barcode reader.
I have given the tapes barcodes and imported them to the robot. But =3D
after I do an inventory the tapes show up with their old tapelabels and =
=3D
not with the barcode.
How can give these tapes a new tapenumber?
