Kees, I dont know of good interface. The books do mention a CLI which is available via Java. http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/ts3500tl/v1r0/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.storage.ts3500.doc%2Fipg_3584_cli.html
OAM provides possible alternatives: 1. D SMS LIBRARY(),DETAIL output contains a status line when there are no cleaner cartridges. 2. The library issues an alert to the host systems when something happens with cleaner cartridges, these are issued by OAM with CBR3750I, and contains things like "OP0008 * The library is out of CST/ECCST cleaner cartridges." There are many alerts related to cleaner carts, see here http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/ts7700/cust/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.storage.ts7740.doc%2Fts7740_ua_operator_info.html You could use automation to detect and parse the message and create your own alert to ops.
