    摘要: A cleaning system for cleaning a picker in an automated media library includes a removable cleaning cartridge. The cleaning cartridge contains cleaning tape that is automatically advanced. The cleaning cartridge has a window through which access to the cleaning tape is provided. The picker has rollers that must be periodically cleaned of debris. The picker is aligned with a designated cleaning bin and one of the rollers is placed in contact with the cleaning tape. The roller then wipes against the cleaning tape. After the roller is cleaned, the cleaning tape advances so that a clean, unused portion of the cleaning tape is available through the window. The cleaning cartridge is extracted from the bin so that another roller can be cleaned. After each roller is cleaned, the cleaning cartridge is returned to the bin, and the picker returns to picking and placing media cartridges until another cleaning operation is required.
