MICROFLASH 2Te PRINTER USER'S GUIDE

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.

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.

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.

Caution: There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
