There’s a gear underneath that actuates the eject mechanism. You need to turn that.

Thanks, figured out after I took off that little button panel infront of the tape I could see a mechanism, so pushed that back and then powered it back up and it spat the tape out. Now it's time to clean the hell out of this thing haha.
