Tips on Using the Rechargeable Li-ion Battery (For RJ-3050/3150
only)
Charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery before use. Do not use it before it is charged.
Darker prints discharge the rechargeable Li-ion battery faster than lighter prints.
Adjust the print density setting in the printer driver’s dialog box or in the [Communication
settings] in the Printer Setting Tool (see Online User's Guide).
The rechargeable Li-ion battery charging can take place in 32°F-104°F (0°C-40°C)
environments. Charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery in an environment in this temperature
range. If the surrounding temperature is out of this range, the rechargeable Li-ion battery will
not be charged, and the battery indicator will remain lit.
If the printer is used when both the rechargeable Li-ion battery is installed and the AC adapter
or Car adapter is connected, the battery indicator may turn off and charging may stop even if
the rechargeable Li-ion battery has not been fully charged.
When charging the rechargeable Li-ion battery while the Car adapter is connected, the amount
of voltage required to fully charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery may not be supplied by the
DC power outlet. When 180 minutes (max.) have passed since charging started, the battery
indicator turns off and charging stops even if the rechargeable Li-ion battery has not been fully
charged.
Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Characteristics
Understanding the properties of the rechargeable Li-ion battery will allow you to optimize its
usage.
Using or storing the rechargeable Li-ion battery in a location exposed to high or low
temperatures may accelerate its deterioration. In particular, using a rechargeable Li-ion battery
with a high charge (charged 90% or more) in a location exposed to high temperatures will
considerably accelerate battery deterioration.
Using the printer while the rechargeable Li-ion battery is installed and charging may accelerate
the battery’s deterioration.
If using the printer when the rechargeable Li-ion battery is installed, disconnect the AC adapter
or Car adapter.
If the printer will not be used for a long period of time, remove the rechargeable Li-ion battery
from the printer when its charge is 50% or less, and then store the battery in a cool place away
from direct sunlight.
If the rechargeable Li-ion battery will not be used for a long period of time, we recommend
charging it every 6 months.
For other precautions, refer to the instruction manual included with the rechargeable Li-ion
battery.
