Explaining Battery Terms 1  Discharge Discharge occurs when the rechargeable Ni-MH battery's power is depleted. The battery discharges slowly over time, even when the battery is not in use. When the battery has been fully-discharged, it cannot be used until it is recharged.  Refresh Refresh occurs when the printer fully discharges the rechargeable Ni-MH battery so that the battery can be recharged to its full capacity. To refresh the battery, press and hold the (Power) button for a few seconds until the POWER indicator begins to blink in green and orange (see Refresh Ni-MH Battery on page 32 for more options).  Over-discharge Over-discharge occurs when the rechargeable Ni-MH battery's power has been depleted to the point that even when charged, it will not retain as much power as before. To avoid over-discharging the battery, charge it periodically.  Inactivity Inactivity is the condition when the rechargeable Ni-MH battery has been unused for too long, and it cannot retain as much power as before. The battery can be restored to its earlier capacity by refreshing it one or two times. If more than one year has passed since the battery was last use, it will not return to its earlier capacity.  Trickle charge Trickle charge is the small amount of power used to charge the rechargeable Ni-MH battery whenever the printer is connected to AC or DC power. The battery slowly discharges (loses power) over time, even when not in use. Trickle charging offsets this discharge, so that the battery remains charged.
