About the batteries
The Miniprint 425 runs on batteries when you unplug the AC
adapter or when the power fails.Fully charged, the 6 AA
rechargeable NiCad batteries will provide 45 to 60 minutes of
normal use.
When the power light blinks,you have about 5 minutes of
battery power left.The batteries will last longer if you turn off
the printer when you use battery power.

month.Follow these steps to check the batteries:

minutes,exercise the batteries.
