I don't know the 3494 personally, but is there something like the Check
Character on it?
I've also seen problems with LTO tapes which had not as the seventh/eigth
character L1 or L2.

What kind of library are you using? I've seen this happen on a Qualstar
8466 with Check Character enabled.

Hi all,

can see from below ... and I can find there are 2 tapes that are having 7
