Turning the Printer OFF

NOTE: If a battery is powering the printer and the Auto-Off Timer feature is enabled, the printer will turn itself off automatically after the selected period of inactivity.

Making Prints Lighter or Darker

You can make prints lighter or darker by using the Print Density Setting in the printer driver dialog. See “Accessing Advanced Software Features”, on page 7. If you are not using a driver, you may save a lighter or darker setting using the PocketJet 3 Utility.

Changing the density setting may result in slight changes in the printer’s speed and the number of pages that can be printed.
