PRINTPAD 7900 USER'S GUIDE

Using Batteries

The printer ships with two batteries installed. Before

operating the printer, remove the two red, isolator

labels either by gently pulling the labels out, or by

lifting the batteries up.

Charging Batteries

1. Plug the power supply connector into the printer's

power port. The power port is located on the side of

the printer's case and is accessible when the

printer's lid is closed (Figure 1).

2. Plug the AC adapter in an appropriate power source.
The charge LED turns red when charging and turns

green when fully charged. The charge LED is visible

when the printer's lid is closed. A complete charge

takes approximately 6 hours.
You can determine the relative battery capacity by

printing a self-test. For more information, see

Printing a

Self-Test on page 6

. On the printout, “Battery Volt”

varies between 6.8 and 8.4 volts.

Caution: There is a risk of explosion if the battery is

replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used

batteries according to the instructions.
