Using the Battery: General Guidelines

If the printer has not been used for a long period of

time, it may be necessary to recharge the battery. For

more information, see

Charging the Battery on page 2

.

Charging the Battery

If the battery is low when the printer “wakes up,” the

printer sounds three short beeps. Plug the AC Adapter

into an appropriate power source and into the Power

Port on the printer. The Charge LED will flash and

progress from red (when the battery is very low in
power) to orange, and then to a solid green when the
battery is fully charged. A complete charge takes
approximately 2.5 to 3.5 hours.

Determining Battery Condition

To determine the battery’s condition, print a self-test.

For more information, see

Printing a Self-Test on

page 4

. The battery voltage varies between 5.8 and 8.0

volts.

Note: To obtain full battery capacity, a new battery

must cycle through two to three complete depletions

and recharges.

Note: To restart a charge, unplug the power cord.

Wait 30 seconds, then replug the power cord.

Caution: There is a risk of explosion if the battery is

replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used

batteries according to the instructions.
