Charging by Printer and Car Charger
There are 2 methods for charging the battery pack by the printer using the car charger.
•
Normal charging
: Charging starts regardless of a battery remaining capacity.
•
Long life charging
: Repeating to charge and discharge the battery pack with
enough battery remaining capacity may accelerate the battery
pack deterioration.
To prevent this, charging starts when a battery remaining
capacity falls down battery level 2 or less.
For the battery remaining capacity and the error status, see "7. LED DISPLAY OF PRINTER".
Select the charging method depending on the procedure.
