The TK85 can read TK50s? I didn't know that! If that's the case,

I had a feeling the later TKs read TK50. I read it on on of HP's DLT
compatibility docs but couldn't remember if it was TK50 or TK70 that
was the oldest compatible format. I have a SCSI-II DLT4000 drive (TK88
or 89??) and I know that doesn't read any old TK tapes, only DLT1,2
etc.
Yes, it should.
