Battery Installation and Charging 
The battery for your PrintAbout printer is shipped in an “uncharged” state. The battery must be charged using 
the following instructions prior to using the printer for the first time. Maximum battery capacity is not reached 
until after completing a minimum of three complete charge and discharge cycles. 
Please refer to 
Figure 2. Install the battery by first placing the end of the battery where the battery contacts are 
located into the printer, and then press down on the end where the release lever is located until the lever “snaps” 
into place.
