Be sure to turn the printer power off before detaching the DC output terminal for the AC adapter, or disconnecting the power supply.

Note that disconnecting the power supply in ways other than described above may prevent the printer from correctly storing any settings in memory.

No battery pack is necessary when the AC adapter is used.

When the battery pack and AC adapter are used simultaneously, charging begins if the battery is not fully charged. The display becomes normal when fully charged (See the header, Charging by installing the specialized AC adapter, optional, on the printer, in this chapter, Preparing for First-time Operation).
