Tips on Using the Battery

• Charging battery after it has been

completely discharged takes about 120

minutes.

• When you run a printer on battery power,

it can print approximately 100 pages

on a full charge.

• Darker prints discharge the battery faster

than lighter prints.

Use software density

control to adjust lightness and darkness.

• Printer's protective vinyl case has a sleeve

on the inside for an extra battery.

With two

batteries, you can print twice as many

pages before you have to charge batteries.

Powering Your Printer

PocketJet printers can be powered from either

AC or DC sources.

To use AC power: Plug the PocketJet AC power

adapter into the PocketJet, plug the AC cord into a

nearby AC power outlet (100~240 VAC, 50-60 Hz).

To use DC power: Plug an appropriate power

adapter cord (either with cigarette plug or hard-

wired) into the PocketJet and then into the 12 VDC

source.

Driver Installation

Your printer requires software drivers to

communicate with your computer and print

properly.

The supplied driver CD contains the latest version

of the software as of the date of production.

The Brother website

(www.brothermobilesolutions.com)

contains the most current driver version.

If the

web version is newer (with a higher version

number), we recommend that you install the

web site version.

Connecting Your Printer

Connect to your computer in three ways:

Via USB cable - please install the USB printer driver

BEFORE connecting the USB cable.

Via Infrared (IrDA) - no driver is required but your

computer must be set properly to receive data via

its Infrared port.

Note that the IrDA connection

will be automatically enabled if no USB cable is

connected.

Via Bluetooth® connection - install the Bluetooth

driver and printer driver for wireless printing!

Printing

Once your printer is powered, any required

drivers installed, and connected to your

computer, turn the printer on by pressing

the main switch once.

The POWER indicator

will light.

Insert a sheet of

Genuine Brother

Paper into the top of the printer with the

smooth, coated side toward the back, and you

are ready to print.

To turn the printer off, press the main switch

twice.
