1.2 Installing and Charging the Battery Cartridge

Note: One battery cartridge is included with the printer. Similar to a cordless phone battery,
the printer’s battery must be charged before using it.

Datamax-O’Neil batteries must be cycled several times to achieve maximum
capacity. To cycle a battery fully, charge it and then allow full discharge through
normal use in the printer.
