Default Cannot eject tape from PV 120T DLT1 Autoloader drive

How do I manually eject a DLT IV tape in a PV 120T DL1
autoloader drive? The autoloader makes a series of loud noises
when I select the EJECT DRIVE mode on the control panel. The
tape comes out about half an inch of the way no more. The
autloader enters an alarm state. IF I powercycle and reissue
the eject command the autoloader now says the source drive is
empty even though the tape is still in there albeit partially
out.

The unit is currently detached from the SCSI connector.
