Hello;

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to remove a broken tape from a
DEC TZ87 tape drive? It made an aweful sound then all the lights on
the right side started blinking. I tried pressing "unload" button and
it makes a clicking sound before finally (about about 1 minute) going
back to blinking lights.

Any suggestions on how to remove the tape?

TIA!
Ron
