it through normal use.
Chargers
Listed below are the specifications for the Cameo series
chargers:
Model UCN72-4:
Model UCN72-4 is designed to charge up to four batteries
simultaneously. Battery packs may be charged separately or while plugged into the printer. Typical charge time

110 and 220 V.A.C. The charger is supplied with line
cords compatible with most international standards.
Caution • Do not attempt to charge batteries with the UC72-4 Charger
while printing. Attempting to print while charging batteries can result
in unreliable charging.
UCN72-4 part numbers vary depending on specific coun-
try of use. Consult the factory for appropriate part numbers.
Model UCN72:
Model UCN-72 is a wall mounted single charger with a
universal 110 to 230, 50-60 Hz. VAC input. Multiple plug
configurations comply with most international standards.
