Dear Team,
I had an issue with syamntec backup exec 2012:
1. SBE can not compress the backup when the cartridge and tape backup capabilities we already support for
compressed backups up to 1,6TB
2. Can not overwrite the cartridge so we had to reformat the cartridge if we do backup ,
but with tools inherited from the NT backup server 2003 has been able to do these two issues
Tape Backup: built in IBM HH LTO Gen 4
Cartridge Backup : IBM LTO4 PN 95P4436 800GB uncompressed/ 1.6T compressed

Couple of things to do:
1. Make sure you're using the Symantec drivers for the tape drive. Use tapeinst.exe to do the installation.
2. Make sure that compression is turned on in the job itself. Use hardware, otherwise software setting.
3. Download your manufacturer's diagnostic utility to make sure that you have no issues with the drive. Most include a compression test which is what you're interested in running.
This assumes you're backing up data that can be compressed, and that is not already compressed ie. photos and zip files. It is also known that files that are compressed can inflate in size when using compression in a job.
Thanks!
