Hi, I was able to fix this problem. I'm still not sure why the labels were defective, but I replaced them with new ones and made sure they had the checksum bit in the barcode. Things are working as expected now.

Thanks.

There can be a number of reasons for the above:

-Faulty bar codes on the media
-Slot mislalignment meaning the bar code reader is unable to read the bar code
-Old bar codes with slightly peeling corners etc

What I would suggest is taking one media that has been registered correctly by Networker and moving that to one of the slots not reading a bar code - if you can then see the new media it is more likely the tapes bar code at fault - if it doesn't read the new nedia it could be the physical slot location at fault.

Are you seeing any errors on the library itself?
