E-22Replacing the BatteryYour Handheld Printer Terminal uses two types of battery: a battery pack and a memorybackup battery.A battery pack (DT-9723LIC) is used for the main battery. A backup battery is housedinside the Handheld Printer Terminal.This guide uses the following terms to refer to the batteries.Battery Pack: Rechargeable battery pack for normal operations and data storageBackup Battery: Built-in battery for memory backupWhen the battery pack power goes low, immediately charge it or replace it with acharged battery pack.For information how to charge battery pack, see pages 49, 56 and 60.Replacing the Battery PackImportant!Always keep backup copies of all important data!•The main battery powers normal operation and also provides power required tomaintain memory contents, while the backup battery provides backup power tomaintain memory contents. Because of this, you should not remove the mainbattery while the backup battery is dead. Removing the battery pack while thebackup battery is dead causes data in the memory to be corrupted or lost. Notethat once data is lost it cannot be recovered. Always keep separate backup copiesof all important data.•The charge of a battery pack when you purchase it may be depleted due totesting at the factory or natural discharge during shipment and storage. Be sureto charge the battery pack before you use it.•The life of a battery pack is limited, and charging a battery pack causes it togradually lose its ability to maintain the charge. If your battery pack seems torequire charging very frequently, it probably means it is time to purchase a new one.•A fully charged backup battery can maintain memory (RAM) contents for about10 minutes, even when the main battery is removed.•The backup battery achieves a full charge in about four days when the batterypack is loaded.
E-23To replace the battery pack1. Make sure that the Handheld Printer Terminal is turned off.If the power is on, press the power key to turn it off.2. Turn the battery pack cover lock switchon the side of the Handheld PrinterTerminal to the “FREE” position.3. Open the battery pack cover.4. Remove the battery pack.Press down the battery pack eject button(see the arrow).Remove the battery pack by pulling onthe tape.5. Install a charged battery pack in theHandheld Printer Terminal. Make surethe battery pack is aligned correctlywhen you install it.
E-24Important!•When replacing the battery pack, make sure you do not leave the HandheldPrinter Terminal without a battery pack for more than about 10 minutes. Doingso can cause data in the memory to be deleted.•Never try to use other type of battery than the one that is specified for thisproduct.6. Return the battery pack cover to itsoriginal position as shown in theillustration, and then turn the batterypack cover lock switch to the “LOCK”position.Replacing the Battery

E-38Using the PrinterPrecautions When Using PrinterPrinting Accuracy1. During high-duty printing such as printing horizontal lines or printing while thebattery remaining capacity is low, the printing speed may slow down to preventexcess current consumption that may cause unaligned printing for one dot ormore.2. Line change errors may occur if the printing interval between lines is about onesecond or more. In the case of using formed sheet paper, either use a large framewith free spaces available or set the printer to continuously print to prevent theline change errors.3. Because printing may pause if the battery remaining capacity is low, linealignment error or printing with uneven space between characters may occurwhen printing resumes later.4. Printing may be illegible right after the roll paper cover has been opened forreloading roll paper. This can be prevented by feeding the roll paper beforestarting printing again.5. The printer will not print unless the paper is loaded properly. Always makesure to properly load the paper before starting printing.6. Only use the recommended printer paper. Use of paper other than therecommended printer paper can reduce printing quality, shorten printer servicelife or cause other detrimental effects that have the risk of impairing printercharacteristics.7. Observe the following when storing printer paper.•Do not store paper in locations subject to high temperature and high humidity sincespontaneous coloring of the paper occurs at temperatures of 60°C (140°F) andabove.•Store paper in a cool, dark location while avoiding excessive exposure to directsunlight.•Plastic films containing plasticizers, ester-based erasers, tape and glue can causediscoloration, while contact with organic solvents, diazo copy paper or scratchingwith the fingernail, etc. can cause the paper to become colored.
E-39Others1. The temperature range for printing with 2-ply paper and label paper is 5 to35°C.2. Once the end mark of the paper appears, promptly replace with new paper.3. Recommended paper: Use only specified papers by CASIO.4. Paper scraps may accumulate and printing quality may decrease when theprinter has been used for a long period of time. The thermal head must becleaned when this happens. Contact your nearest CASIO distributor or anauthorized CASIO service provider to have cleaning performed.5. Printing quality may decrease when the surrounding temperature becomesexcessively low.6. If once the printer is set for 58 mm width paper, it cannot be changed again for80mm width paper.7. Load paper in the printer when not using for a long period of time to preventdamage to printer components.Important!•Do not touch the thermal head during or immediately after printing.
