The 4mm Tape Auto-Loader is considered a jukebox and therefore requires
another liecnese enabler to work randomly. I have heard that you can
put this device in sort of an automatic mode but haven't seen any docs
that back this up.

Best bet is to buy the enabler codes for the auto-loader and let it go.
That way, Networker will change when it needs to and eject and reload
tapes as required when doing restores.

Hope it helps.
