Using the Rechargeable Li-ion Battery/Battery Base (Optional:PA-BT-4000LI/PA-BB-001) b Use the AC adapter and AC power cord to connect the printer to an AC power outlet. 1 1 Battery indicator The battery indicator lights in orange during charging. When the rechargeable Li-ion battery is fully charged, the battery indicator turns off. NOTE If the printer is turned on with the rechargeable Li-ion battery installed and the AC adapter is connected to an AC power outlet, the battery will be recharged. However, when the printer is turned on, even after the rechargeable battery has been charged, the battery charge will be used, leaving the battery with less than a full charge the next time the printer is used. We recommend leaving the printer turned off while charging the battery. Stopping Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Charging 14 To stop the rechargeable Li-ion battery from charging, disconnect the AC power cord from the power connector of the printer. Tips on Using the Rechargeable Li-ion Battery 14 Charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery as soon as possible after it is purchased. Since the battery is sold with the minimum charge necessary, the initial charge may have been depleted. To prevent deterioration, we recommend charging the battery immediately. Charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery by plugging the printer into an AC power outlet or by using the adapter included with the 4 bay battery charger. 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 "Printer Setting Tool". (See Print Density on page 36) The rechargeable Li-ion battery can be charged in an environment between 41 F to 104 F (5 C to 40 C). Charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery in an environment within 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. In this case, the battery indicator does not accurately show whether the battery is being charged. Charging restarts when the environment returns to within the specified temperature range. When 5 hours have passed since charging started, the battery indicator 14 turns off and charging stops even if the rechargeable Li-ion battery has not been fully charged. 113
