Extending Battery Life

Here are some tips for extending the overall life of your batteries:

•Never expose the batteries to direct sunlight or temperatures over 40°C (104°F).

•Only charge the batteries inside the PB42 using a power supply or a 4-bay charger (Model AC10) or in the CK60/PB42 quad battery charger (Model AC4).

Here are some tips for extending the life of your battery between charges:

•Turn off the radio when you are not using it.

•Remove the batteries from the printer if you will not be using it for three days or more.

•Do not operate the PB42 in extremely cold temperatures. Using the PB42 in temperatures below freezing reduces overall battery life.

Remember that any rechargeable battery loses its ability to maintain a charge over time. You can only recharge it a finite number of times before you must replace it.

Loading Media

You can use roll or fanfold receipt media with the PB42. The PB42 ships with one roll of media that you can use the first time you unpack the shipping box and verify that the printer is working correctly.
