Charging the Battery
To operate the printer from the battery, the battery
pack must be charged fully. Since the battery pack is
not charged when it is purchased, charge it following
the procedure explained below.
To charge the battery, load the battery pack in the
battery attachment, and attach it to the printer.
For procedures, see "Attaching the Battery to the
Printer".
Important
Do not connect the AC adapter to the printer
before attaching the battery to the printer. If you
attach or remove the battery with the AC adapter
connected, charging may not start. In this case,
disconnect the AC adapter from the printer and
then reconnect it.
1
Plug the power cord into the AC adapter,
and then connect the AC adapter to the
printer.
2
Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
The charge lamp starts flashing red, and
charging of the battery pack starts. The charging
progress is indicated by the charge lamp. When
the lamp turns off, charging of the battery pack is
complete. See below.

Notes
• Charge the battery pack at a place where
the ambient temperature is between 5°C and
35°C/41°F and 95°F. If the temperature is outside
this range, charging of the battery pack may not
progress or the performance may be degraded. If
the ambient temperature is low, the charging time
may become longer. If charging still takes a long
time (about 5 to 6 hours) even though printing is
not activated while the battery is being charged,
the ambient temperature may not be between
5°C and 35°C/41°F and 95°F.
• While the battery pack is being charged, the
charge lamp flashes or turns off to indicate the
charging progress even if the printer is turned off.
• You can use the printer while charging the
battery. In this case, the charging time becomes
longer because charging is interrupted during
printing. The charge lamp flashes red.
