Hi Urs,
If you not have any success with any cleaning/restoring process advice,
you could consider just replacing the entire MDV units themselves, or
just another QL entirely.
As there are enough other QL's out there.
Also, enough MDV cartridges available too ... unless the data on the
cartridge as no backup of the information held.
Hi all,
A friend of mine had his QL stored away for more than a decade in a "bad"
(wet) place (wet).
The QL is working but "looks" very bad (slimy and rusty).
Outside cleaning was easy, also was blowing the dust away internally.
The first MDV cartridges we've tried to load were "destroyed" by this QL.
So, what is Best practice to clean and restore a MDV-Drive
(Transport-Rubber, Tape-Head)?
Thanks for any support.
Best regards, Urs
P.S. How to fix a MDV-Cartridge with its "Pressing-Foam" gone.
