Or - you can buy your own software + labels for less than $500 ($1000 will get 
you color) and print your own custom Labels from www.netcllc.com. I use 
Alphanumeric characters for my barcode labels like MCxxxxx to denote tapes that 
are used to backup Mechanic's Dept.

The trick is to start each new tape type at a nice boundary on yourlabeling.  
I've got mixed LTO1 & LTO2 and my barcode rules look like this:
> vmrule -listall -bbarcode          media    volume         max mounts/tag     
>          type     pool             cleanings 
> description------------------------------------------------------------------------------CLN
>               HC_CLN   None                    50 HCART Cleaning Tape001      
>         HCART    Scratch                  0 hcart002              HCART    
> Scratch                  0 hcart003              HCART    Scratch             
>      0 hcart0040             HCART    Scratch                  0 hcart0041    
>          HCART    Scratch                  0 hcart0042             HCART    
> Scratch                  0 hcart0043             HCART    Scratch             
>      0 hcart0044             HCART2   Scratch                  0 hcart20045   
>           HCART2   Scratch                  0 hcart20046             HCART2   
> Scratch                  0 hcart20047             HCART2   Scratch            
>       0 hcart20048             HCART2   Scratch                  0 hcart20049 
>             HCART2   Scratch                  0 hcart2<DEFAULT>        HCART2 
>   Scratch                  0 hcart2

As you can see, my HCART tapes number 001xxx to 0043xx, my HCART2 tapesstart at 
0045xx and go up.
It would have been easier to start the new taps at a nice 1000's boundarybut we 
didn't think ahead.
The next trick is to get each assigned to the appropriate volume group.  
Therules say an individual volume group can't mix media types.

Hello
We have a setup with a mix of LTO1 (Label ends with L1) as hcart and LTO (Label 
ends with L2) as hcart2, soon we will also have LTO3 (Labelpresumably ends with 
L3)
Has somebody a way to make barcode rules so new tapes get the right tape type ?
RegardsMichael
