Ensure Proper Packaging While Shipping Tapes

•

When you ship a cartridge, ship it in its original or better packaging.

•

Always ship or store a cartridge in the vertical orientation and inside the

jewel case to prevent damage to the tape edge.

•

Use only a recommended shipping container that securely holds the

cartridge in its jewel case during transportation.

•

Never ship a cartridge in a commercial shipping envelope. Always place it

in a box or package.

•

If you ship the cartridge in a cardboard box or a box of a sturdy material,

ensure the following:

–

Place the cartridge in polyethylene plastic wrap or bags to protect it

from dust, moisture, and other contaminants.

–

Pack the cartridge snugly. Do not allow it to move around.

–

Double-box the cartridge (place it inside a box, then place that box

inside the shipping box) and add padding between the two boxes.
