Your Handheld Printer Terminal uses two types of battery: a battery pack and a memory
backup battery.
A battery pack (DT-9723LIC) is used for the main battery. A backup battery is housed
inside the Handheld Printer Terminal.

This guide uses the following terms to refer to the batteries.

Battery Pack: Rechargeable battery pack for normal operations and data storage
Backup Battery: Built-in battery for memory backup

When the battery pack power goes low, immediately charge it or replace it with a
charged battery pack.
You can use the AC Adaptor, Cradle -type Battery Charger or Bridge Satellite Cradle to
charge the battery pack. When charging the battery pack with these options, first install
the battery pack in the Handheld Printer Terminal. For information about use of the
options, see pages 53, 60 and 64.

Replacing the Battery Pack

Important!

Always keep backup copies of all important data!

• The main battery powers normal operation and also provides power required to
maintain memory contents, while the backup battery provides backup power to
maintain memory contents. Because of this, you should not remove the main
battery while the backup battery is dead. Removing the battery pack while the
backup battery is dead causes data in the memory to be corrupted or lost. Note
that once data is lost it cannot be recovered. Always keep separate backup
copies of all important data.

• The charge of a battery pack when you purchase it may be depleted due to
testing at the factory or natural discharge during shipment and storage. Be sure
to charge the battery pack before you use it.

• The life of a battery pack is limited, and charging a battery pack causes it to
gradually lose its ability to maintain the charge. If your battery pack seems to
require charging very frequently, it probably means it is time to purchase a new one.

• A fully charged backup battery can maintain memory (RAM) contents for about
10 minutes, even when the main battery is removed.

• The backup battery achieves a full charge in about four days when the battery
pack is loaded.

Precautions When Using Printer

Printing Accuracy

1. During high-duty printing such as printing horizontal lines or printing while the
battery remaining capacity is low, the printing speed may slow down to prevent
excess current consumption that may cause unaligned printing for one dot or
more.

2. Line change errors may occur if the printing interval between lines is about one
second or more. In the case of using formed sheet paper, either use a large frame
with free spaces available or set the printer to continuously print to prevent the
line change errors.

3. Because printing may pause if the battery remaining capacity is low, line
alignment error or printing with uneven space between characters may occur
when printing resumes later.

4. Printing may be illegible right after the roll paper cover has been opened for
reloading roll paper. This can be prevented by feeding the roll paper before
starting printing again.

5. The printer will not print unless the paper is loaded properly. Always make
sure to properly load the paper before starting printing.

6. Only use the recommended printer paper. Use of paper other than the
recommended printer paper can reduce printing quality, shorten printer service
life or cause other detrimental effects that have the risk of impairing printer
characteristics.

7. Observe the following when storing printer paper.

• Do not store paper in locations subject to high temperature and high humidity since

spontaneous coloring of the paper occurs at temperatures of 60°C (140°F) and
above.

• Store paper in a cool, dark location while avoiding excessive exposure to direct

sunlight.

• Plastic films containing plasticizers, ester-based erasers, tape and glue can cause

discoloration, while contact with organic solvents, diazo copy paper or scratching
with the fingernail, etc. can cause the paper to become colored.

Using the Printer

IT-3000_E_P32_52.p65 2005.3.29, 5:55 PM42

E-43

Others

1. The temperature range for printing with 2-ply paper and label paper is 5 to
35°C.

2. Once the end mark of the paper appears, promptly replace with new paper.

3. Recommended paper: Use only specified papers by CASIO.

4. Paper scraps may accumulate and printing quality may decrease when the
printer has been used for a long period of time. The thermal head must be
cleaned when this happens. Contact your nearest CASIO distributor or an
authorized CASIO service provider to have cleaning performed.

5. Printing quality may decrease when the surrounding temperature becomes
excessively low.

6. If once the printer is set for 58 mm width paper, it cannot be changed again for
80mm width paper.

7. Load paper in the printer when not using for a long period of time to prevent
damage to printer components.

Important!

• Do not touch the thermal head during or immediately after printing.

The Magnetic Card Reader comes as standard with IT-3000M55E/M55U/M54E2.
Only use cards that are compatible with the ISO standards. The procedure for reading
cards is described below.

1. Remove the cover as shown in the illustration.

2. Insert the card all the way into the reader as shown in the illustration, and steadily
pass the card through the reader in the direction of the arrow.

Precautions During Use

• Cards may not be able to be read if they are passed through the reader too
rapidly.

• A reading error may occur if the speed at which the card is passed through the
reader changes suddenly.

• Do not allow magnets to come in close proximity to the magnetic card since this
can prevent data on the card from being read. In addition, do not stack
magnetic cards on top of each other.

• Cards that have been excessively misshaped or bent may not be able to be read.

• Soiling of the magnetic strip may make it difficult to read the card. If a card has

become soiled, wipe with a clean, soft cloth.

• Regularly clean the magnetic card reader by passing a cleaning card through
the reader to prevent excessive friction with cards. When using in a location
where there are low levels of dust, clean once a week and about once every 500
passes through the card reader.

• Install the cover when not using the magnetic card reader. The drip-proof
function of the magnetic card reader is not guaranteed if the cover is not installed.

IR Communication

IR communication can be used to transfer
data between two Handheld Printer
Terminals.
When performing IR communication,
orient the IR ports of both Handheld
Printer Terminals so they are pointing
directly at each other.
Data communication is possible within a
distance of 0 (in direct contact) to 1 m
(max. 20 cm at 4 Mbps).

Important!

• A high-sensitivity communication element is used during IR communication.

• In order to ensure successful communication, avoid using cellular phones or

other devices that emit radio wave in the area where you are performing IR
communication.

• If you need to use such a device, move away from the communicating Handheld
Printer Terminals. In case of a cellular phone, keep it at least 30cm (

") away.

RS-232C Communication (IT-3000M53E/IT-3000M54E2 only)

You can also transfer data directly between
the Handheld Printer Terminal and your
computer. With the power turned off, open
the connector cover ( ) and connect the
RS-232C interface connector on the right
side of the Handheld Printer Terminal ( )
with your computer using the RS-232C
Cross Cable (HA-B80AX).

BluetoothTM Communication

BluetoothTM protocol can also be used to
transfer data between two Handheld
Printer Terminals.
The two Handheld Printer Terminals
should be no more than five meters apart
(as long as there is nothing blocking the
path in between).

Important!

Observe the following precautions to help ensure that data communication is
successful.

• Make sure that the Handheld Printer Terminal are located within about five
meters (16

'4

1313

1313

13

⁄⁄

⁄⁄

⁄

1616

") of each other. Surroundings (obstacles) may require a shorter

distance between the two terminals.

• Make sure there is at least two meters (6' 7") between this device and other
devices (electrical appliances, audio-visual equipment, office automation
equipment, and digital cordless telephones, facsimile machines, etc. Take special
care with microwave ovens. Allow at least three meters (9' 10

") between

communicating devices and a microwave oven.) When approaching such a
device with its power is turned on, proper data communication may prove
impossible while this may also cause interference with TV and radio reception
(images produced by certain UHF and broadcast satellite channels may become
blurry).

• Normal data communication may not be possible in an area near a broadcast
transmitter or wireless transmitter. If this happens, move to a different location.
Normal data communication may not be possible in areas exposed to strong
radio waves.

• Wireless LAN Interference

Because Bluetooth

TM

and Wireless LAN use the same frequency band (2.4GHz),
radio interference can occur if there is a Wireless LAN device nearby. This can
result in lower data communication speeds, or even make it impossible to
establish a connection. If this happens, try the following countermeasures.

• Move at least 10 meters (32

'103⁄4") away from the Wireless LAN device.

• If you cannot keep the distance at least 10 meters (32

'103⁄4") or more between the

Handheld Printer Terminal and a Wireless LAN device, turn off the power of the
Wireless LAN device.
