The whole reason I attempted doing it this way is because despite the
fact that both systems have TK 70 tape drives when attempting to do a
backup on the -200 it keeps telling me the tape is
write protected
which it isn't.
Make sure it isn't a TK50 you put in the TK70, or formatted as TK50.
Probably switch the drives between the systems ?

I don't think that later DLT media is going to have any chance to work
properly on a TK50 or TK70 drive. You need to find CompactTape II
media for your TK70.
This is like trying to use "high density" floppy media in a "low
density" drive... it's the wrong oesterd to work properly (if at all).
