The LI72 is a wall mounted fast charger with universal 110
to 230, 50-60 Hz. VAC input. Multiple A.C. plug configurations
comply with most international standards. This charger is intended for use with Lithium Ion (Li-ion) batteries. QL series
printers only utilize Li-ion batteries.
The LI72 is supplied in two variations: a two wire version
and a three-wire version. The three-wire version offers more
intelligent charging features and is used with more-recently
produced printers..
Both of the LI72 models will charge a battery pack as fast as
its charge level will allow, and then switch over to a maintenance charge to keep the charge at its maximum.
Charging Battery Packs with the LI72 Two-Wire Version
Plug the LI72 into the appropriate A.C. wall receptacle, and
then insert the charge cable into the battery pack charger jack.
The charge indicator LED will indicate the status of the charger as follows:
Indicator

Error
The battery may have an
internal short, or its charge
monitoring circuitry may be
malfunctioning. The battery
pack should not be used any
further.
Do not charge batteries with the two-wire LI72 model while printing.  
Attempting to print while charging can result in improperly charged
batteries.
Caution • Do not leave the two-wire charger plugged into a battery
pack for a prolonged period of time when it is installed in the printer
and has reached the maintenance charge state.  Charging a battery
when installed in a printer for a prolonged period of time could cause
damage to the printer.

determined by the type of media being used. Label media will be advanced to the next gap or bar sense marker. Journal (plain) media will be advanced a length determined by the printer’s software.
• The Function (FTN) Button is controlled by a printer’s
specific application to support such functions as:
		 Print a battery level report.
		 Print the Local Area Network (LAN) status
		 Print a Short Range Radio Frequency (SRRF) status
		 Print a media supply report
The Green LED on the left side of the control panel indicates
the status of several printer features:
• A slowly blinking sequence indicates the printer’s battery
needs charging.
• Printers with a wireless QuickLink module installed: a
quickly blinking sequence indicates the printer has not established a link to either a Local Area Network or a compatible wireless equipped terminal.
• Printers with a wireless QuickLink module installed: A
steadily lit indicator shows that the printer has established a wireless link, either to the LAN or to a compatible
terminal.
• A steadily lit green indicator on a printer with no wireless
option installed is a power-on indicator.
The Yellow LED on the right side of the control panel has
two indication conditions.
• A rapidly blinking yellow LED and a chime indicate that no
application has been loaded into the printer.

Verify the Printer Is Working
Before you connect the printer to your computer or portable
data terminal, make sure that the printer is in proper working
order.  You can do this by printing a configuration label using
the “two key reset” method. If you can’t get this label to print,
refer to “Troubleshooting”.
Printing a Configuration Label
1. Turn the printer off. Load the media compartment with
journal media (media with no black bars printed on the
back)
2. Press and hold the Feed Button.
3. Press and release the Power button and keep the Feed
button pressed. When printing starts, release the Feed
button.
The unit will print a line of interlocking “x” characters to
ensure all elements of the print head are working, print out the
version of software loaded in the printer and then print two reports.
The first report indicates model, ROM version, serial number, baud rate, etc. The second report prints out more detailed information on the printer’s configuration and parameter
settings. If no second report appears, there is no application
loaded. (See the Troubleshooting Section for sample printouts
and a further discussion on how to use the configuration label
as a diagnostic tool.)
Connecting the Printer
The printer must establish communications with a host terminal which sends the data to be printed. Communications
occur in four basic ways:
• QL Plus series printers can communicate by cable via either RS-232C or USB 2.0 protocols. USB drivers are included in the Zebra Universal Driver which can be downloaded from www.zebra.com/drivers.
• Linking to a host terminal via Infrared (usually by means
of the industry standard IrDA protocol)
• By means of a Bluetooth™ short range radio frequency
link.
• By means of a wireless LAN (Local Area Network) per
802.11b/g specifications.
28
QL Plus Series User Guide
Cable Communication
Caution • The printer should be turned off before connecting or
disconnecting a communications cable.
All QL Plus series printers can communicate by cable; the
specific cable supplied with your printer will vary with the host
terminal and your model printer.
RS-232C Communications
The 8- pin circular connector on your communications cable
plugs into the serial communications port on the side of the
printer. QL Plus model printers also have a USB port.
USB Communications
The small connector on the USB cable plugs into the printer.
The connectors are keyed to assure correct alignment; do not
try to force the cable if it does not plug in. The other end of

QL Plus Series User Guide
the cable must be plugged into the host terminal as shown in
Figure 12, or to a serial or USB port on a computer (Figure 13.)
The QL Plus series is configured with the USB Open HCI interface driver allowing it to communicate with Windows® based
devices.
USB drivers are included in the Zebra Universal Driver which
can be downloaded from the Zebra Web site. Other terminals
or communications devices may require the installation of
special drivers to use the USB connection. Consult the factory
for further details.
Providing Strain Relief for Communications Cable
If you are connecting a communications cable to the printer permanently, use the strain relief features built into the belt
clip retainer to prevent excessive strain on the communications connector. There are two kinds of strain relief features.
If you are using the printer with the standard belt clip, bend
the cable in a broad loop to relieve stress on the connector
and press it into the retaining feature on the belt clip retainer
as shown in figure 14.

IR Communications
Printers equipped for infrared (IR) communications are identified by a small “IR” logo on the unit’s label. Printers with the
IR option conform to the IrDA communications protocol.
IR functions are disabled if a communications cable is plugged into
the printer.
Ensure that there is a direct line of sight between the printer
and the terminal that will be sending data. The IR window on
the front of the printer must face the corresponding window
on the terminal to properly send and receive signals.
IrDA compliant terminals will automatically initiate communications to the printer. An IrDA terminal will seek out any linkable devices and establish communications between them,
even turning the printer on if necessary.

Wireless Communications with Bluetooth™
“Bluetooth” is a worldwide standard for the exchange of
data between two devices via radio frequencies. Bluetooth radios are relatively low powered to help prevent interference
with other devices running at similar radio frequencies. This
limits the range of a Bluetooth device to about 10 meters (32
feet). Both the printer and the device it communicates with
must follow the Bluetooth standard. Other than conditions
specified elsewhere in this manual, only one of the radio options can be installed in the printer at one time and the antenna used for these transmitters must not be co-located or must
not operate in conjunction with any other antenna.
Bluetooth Networking Overview
Each Bluetooth enabled QL Plus printer is identified by
a unique Bluetooth Device Address (BDA) loaded into its
QuickLink module when manufactured. In order to exchange
data, two Bluetooth enabled devices must establish a connection.
Bluetooth software is always running in the background,
ready to respond to connection requests. One device (known
as the master or the client) must request a connection with another. The second device (the slave or the server) then accepts
or rejects the connection. A Bluetooth enabled QL Plus printer will normally act as a slave creating a miniature network
with the terminal sometimes referred to as a “piconet”.
For the most part, communications using the Bluetooth protocol are initiated and processed without any operator intervention.
QL 220 Plus and 420 Plus printers can be equipped with
both a Bluetooth and an 802.11b radio, allowing communications with both Bluetooth enabled devices and a Wireless
Local Area Network (WLAN) (see WLAN discussion following).

33
QL Plus Series User Guide
WLAN Overview
QL Plus printers can be equipped with radios using the industry standard 802.11 protocols. They will have the FCC ID
number on the serial number label on the back of the unit.
• QL Plus series Wireless Network Printers with the Zebra
802.11g WLAN radio module can be identified by the text
“Wireless Network Printer” and FCC ID: I28MD-ZLAN11G
on the serial number label on the back of the printer.
• QL 220 and QL 420 Plus printers can be configured with
both an 802.11b WLAN radio and a Bluetooth radio running in the same unit. At present only one dual radio configuration is offered, with Bluetooth radio FCC ID “I28MDBTCT2Y4” and 802.11b Compact flash radio  FCC ID number “I28MD-RW4137”. The FCC ID numbers and other
regulatory information for both radios are located on the
serial number label on the back of the printer.
These printers allow wireless communication as a node
within a local area network, (LAN) and its wireless capabilities
allow communications from any point within the LAN’s perimeter. Printers equipped with the dual Bluetooth and 802.11b
WLAN radio configuration can be linked to both a WLAN and a
Bluetooth network. Methods of establishing communications
to the printer will vary with each LAN application.
Methods of establishing communications to QL series printers will vary with each LAN application. General information on establishing WLAN communications can be found in
either the ”CPCL Programmers Manual” or the “Quick Start
Guide for Mobile Wireless Printers” both available on-line.
More information and LAN configuration utilities are included
in Zebra’s Label Vista™ program (version 2.8 and later). Label
Vista may be downloaded from the Zebra Web site.
Setting Up the Software
QL Plus printers use Zebra’s CPCL Programming language
which was designed for mobile printing applications. CPCL is
fully described in the ”CPCL Programmers Manual”, available
on-line at www.zebra.com/manuals.
You can also use Label Vista™, Zebra’s Windows® based label creation program which uses a graphical interface to create and edit labels in the CPCL language.
34
QL Plus Series User Guide
Refer to Appendix F for tips on downloading the Label Vista
application from Zebra’s Web site.
QL series printers with an optional memory upgrade can
support an interpreter for ZPL II®, or EPL programming languages. QL Plus series printers also have interpreters for
ZPL II® or EPL programming languages included as a standard
part of their operating system.
If you plan to use ZPL II or EPL, refer to the appropriate
Programming Guides which are also available on-line from
Zebra’s Web site at www.zebra.com/manuals. If you choose to
use a third party label preparation system, follow the installation instructions included in the package.

WLAN Module Using 802.11g Radio
The following section only applies when the 802.11g WLAN module (With FCC ID: I28MD-ZLAN11G) is
installed in a QL Plus series printer (note that only one of the radio options can be installed in the printer at
one time). Other than conditions specified elsewhere in this manual, only one of the radio options can be
installed in the printer at one time and the antenna used for these transmitters must not be co-located or
must not operate in conjunction with any other antenna.
QL Plus models have the FCC ID number on a label on the back of the unit.
Caution • Use of a QL Plus series printer with the radio module
marked with FCC ID: I28MD-ZLAN11G meets the FCC requirements for
radio frequency (RF) radiation exposure in the standard body worn
configuration with no minimum separation. In this configuration,
which applies whether the belt clip or shoulder strap is used, the face
of the printer from which paper is transported is facing away from the
user’s body. The standard configuration must always be used when
the printer is body worn.

Preventive Maintenance
Extending Battery Life
• Never expose the battery to direct sunlight or temperatures over 104° F (40° C).
• Do not charge the battery when the temperature exceeds  
113° F (45° C).
• Always use a Zebra charger designed specifically for
Lithium-Ion batteries. Use of any other kind of charger
may damage the battery.
• Use the correct media for your printing requirements. An
authorized Zebra re-seller can help you determine the optimum media for your application.
• If you print the same text or graphic on every label, consider using a pre-printed label.
• Choose the correct print darkness, and print speed for
your media.
• Use software handshaking (XON/XOFF) whenever possible.
• Select Tear-Off mode whenever possible (Peel-Off mode
uses more power).
• If your printer has the optional LCD display, use the display backlight only when necessary. Turn it off whenever
it is not needed.
• Remove the battery if the printer won’t be used for a
day or more and you’re not performing a maintenance
charge.
• Consider purchasing an extra battery.
• Remember that any rechargeable battery will lose its
ability to maintain a charge over time. It can only be recharged a finite number of times before it must be replaced. Always dispose of batteries properly. Refer to
Appendix E for more information on battery disposal.
Caution • Do not print while the LI72 Wall Charger is plugged into the
unit.  Unreliable battery charging can result.
