Hi fubstIvy

When you encounter the Error Code 8E - cleaning tape nearly expired. Then you will know that your cleaning tape is about to go expires and need a replacement.

Alternatively, if you have just done a cleaning job but it's still prompting for cleaning. Needless to say the cleaning tape need to be replaced.

Here's a manual for TL2000, if can you need, refer to Chapter 8 for error codes:

Hope this helps.
