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.
