Brian Um, no, I hadn't spotted my second typo!
That explains why correcting the first typo didn't change the behaviour at all, it STILL couldn't find the device. (whoops) Now, amlabel works :) So, I'm now labelling the 9 tapes (I'll try to remember not to label the cleanertape!) Thanks for all the help.

Did you catch the 2nd typo ? You have an "o" rather than a "0" as the last character of the device name.
