3.When the battery is fully charged, the STATUS indicator turns off. Disconnect the AC adapter or car adapter from the DC connector.
Stopping Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Charging
To stop the battery charging, disconnect the AC adapter or car adapter from the DC connector.
Notes on Using the Rechargeable Li-ion Battery
Fully charge the battery before use. Do not use it before it is fully charged.
High density (dark) printing discharges the battery faster than low density printing.
Adjust the print density setting in the printer driver’s dialog box or Printer Setting Tool (see the Online User’s Guide).
The battery charging must take place in 32°F - 104°F (0°C - 40°C) environments, otherwise the battery will not be charged, and the STATUS indicator will remain lit.
If you use the printer when both the battery is installed and the AC adapter or car adapter is connected, the STATUS indicator may turn off and charging may stop even if the battery has not been fully charged.
Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Characteristics
To ensure the highest performance and longest life from your the battery:
Do not use or store the battery in a location exposed to extreme high or low temperatures as it may discharge more quickly. This may happen when using a rechargeable Li-ion battery with a high charge (charged 90% or more) in a location exposed to high temperatures.
Remove the battery when storing the printer for long periods of time.
Store batteries with less than a 50% charge in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight.
Recharge the battery every six months if it is stored for long periods of time.
Connect the Printer to External Power
Connecting to an AC Power Outlet (Optional)
Connect the printer to a nearby AC power outlet to power the printer or charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery using AC power.
1. Connect the AC adapter to the printer.
2. Connect the AC power cord to the AC adapter.
3. Connect the AC power cord to a nearby AC power outlet (100 - 240 VAC, 50 - 60 Hz).

similar) to power the printer or charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery using the vehicle’s DC power.

•The voltage supplied by a vehicle may fluctuate, and printing speed may vary.
•The maximum valtage is 12 V DC.
•The car adapter plug is not compatible with other outlets that are not the 12 V cigarette type.
•When the car adapter is connected to charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery, the amount of voltage required to fully charge the battery may not be supplied by the DC power outlet. If 9 hours have passed since charging started, the STATUS indicator turns off and charging stops even if the rechargeable Li-ion battery has not been fully charged.
