problem NTbackup windows 2000

[lotuseuropa]

my NTbackup on a windows 2000 server has a problem with automatically formatting his tape before backing up.
I've got to erase the tape manually and then my backup will work.
Is there somewhere an option in NTbackup to fill in to "erase" or "overwrite" the tape before starting the job ?
thanks in advance
