PRINTPAD SERIES OF PRINTERS 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 as follows:

If you are using a standard PrintPAD series

printer, the power port is located next to the

paper cavity (Figure 1).

If you are using a PrintPAD-9000 printer, the

power port is located on the side of the printer's

case and is accessible when the printer's lid is

closed (Figure 2).

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

green when fully charged. If you are using the

PrintPAD-9000 printer, 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 7

. On the printout, “Battery Volt”

varies between 6.8 and 8.4 volts.
