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 use.

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

1.2.1 Installing the Battery

Note: Refer to the illustration below to install the battery pack in the printer.

Unlock the battery door by sliding the locking tab down.

Open the battery door to an angle of approx. 90 degrees. Do not force open.

Insert the battery as shown. (Non-contact side first, letting the contact end drop into place).

Close and lock the battery door by sliding the locking tab up.
