You ask the tape drive fairy :)

(boy do I feel silly)
Hmmmm  I guess I should have looked closer at the 
Output of tapetype.

I read that I should turn it off, but Dell has no answer
For me on how to do so.  The guys I talked to thought I
Was crazy and they had never heard of such a request.
This tape drive is supposed to have some "intelliget"
Sensors to determine if it should turn compression on or
Off.  

Any tips for me how to 
 - Turn off compression
 - Get a more accurate tapetype definition?

Thanks
