Audience–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
The Operator’s Handbook is designed for the person printing
and applying labels.
This chapter tells you how to:
✦ charge, load, and remove the battery
✦ connect the AC power supply
✦ attach the shoulder strap
✦ use the printer’s trigger and LED.
Charging the Battery ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
The printer is shipped with a 13.2VDC NiCd battery and an
8-hour "trickle" battery charger. The battery can be used and
recharged daily for approximately two years. When the
battery is not in use and not recharging, the battery loses
2-3% of its charge per day. Environments with extreme heat
increase the discharge rate.
Before operating the printer, you must charge the battery and
load it into the printer. You can use any of these chargers:
✦ 8-hour "trickle" charger
✦ 1-hour "fast" charger
✦ 4-station charger.
See Chapter 6, "Specifications," for information on charger
options.
w Before using the charger, inspect the cord for bare wires.
Do Not use a charger with bare wires. Only chargers
approved for this printer should be used.
