You CANNOT label a cleaning tape !!! It is not writable media....
Whenever it gets placed into a tape drive, it simply cleans that drive
and is then ejected... 

My networker server/library refused to recognize the tape until I
physically placed a barcode  label on the cleaning tape. I filled up my
library, except for the last slot, then imported the cleaning tape, and
it recognized it once it had a readable barcode label...  
I have a 60 slot library, and specify the cleaning slot as the last slot
(#60).
