OC-2 SERIES OF PRINTERS USER'S GUIDE
Setting up your printer
Use the following information to set up your printer:
• "Unpacking your printer" on page 2
• "Installing/removing the battery" on page 3, or "Removing
the battery isolator" on page 2 (new printers only)
• "Loading media" on page 7
• "Printing a self-test" on page 8
• "Connecting the printer via a cable or radio" on page 9
• "Configuring the printer" on page 10
In addition to the steps outlined in each section, additional
information may be included if it applies to, or expands upon,
the step being discussed.
Unpacking your printer
Before using your new printer, remove all packaging material
and inspect the printer for possible shipping damage.
If the printer has been damaged:
• Contact the shipping company and file a damage report.
• Contact Datamax-O’Neil.
• Keep all shipping materials.
Removing the battery isolator
The battery is already installed in new printers. An insulating
strip (battery isolator) prevents accidental discharge during
shipping. You must remove the battery isolator before using
the printer or attempting to charge its battery.
1. Press the printhead cover release and open the printer.
Locate the battery isolator (see Figure 5).
2. Lift out the battery and battery isolator (Figure 6). Remove
and discard the battery isolator.
3. Insert the battery in the printer in its original orientation, as
shown in Figure 7.
4. Close the printer.

2. Remove any packaging material (if applicable).
3. Position the battery with its contacts facing toward the
battery cavity, as shown in Figure 9.

end of the battery into the cavity first, as shown in
Figure 10.
5. Slide the battery all the way to the right in the battery cavity
so that the edge of the battery hits the battery stop, as
shown in Figure 11. The printer beeps one time when you
