Are barcode labels a requirement, or is there an alternative ? Apologies, for my bad description, I have been using the GUI version of BAT to label the tapes, I know there is the "label" console command, but apart from the console in BAT, I haven;t found how to get into a CLI console. I'm also unsure as to the correct format to use the comand when talking to the Superloader.
