Using the Battery: General Guidelines
If the printer has not been used for a long period of
time, it may be necessary to recharge the battery. For
more information, see
Charging the Battery
If the battery is low when the printer “wakes up,” the
printer sounds three short beeps. Plu g the AC Adapter
into an appropriate power source and into the Power
Port on the printer. The Charge LED will flash and
progress from red (when the battery is very low in
power) to orange, and then to a solid green when the
battery is fully charged. A complete charge takes
approximately 2.5 to 3.5 hours.
Note: To obtain full battery capacity, a new battery
must cycle through two to three complete depletions
and recharges.
Note: To restart a charge, unplug the power cord.
Wait 30 seconds, then replug the power cord.

Clearing Linerless Paper Jams
Note: The following applies to printers that are
designed for linerless paper.
A paper jam may occur if an O’Neil printer with linerless
paper installed is left in a cold environment without
being used for an extended period of time (such as
overnight).

Note: Do not use a knife to fix the paper jam. This
may cause damage to the printer roller underneath the
paper.
1. Open the print head by raising the print head
release lever until it is fully open. Do not stop at the
partial open position.
2. Roll the media tightly onto the spool.
