Replacing Batteries
A handy low battery power indicator lets you know when battery power is getting
too low for proper operation. The message “LOW BATTERY” appears on the
display if battery power is low when you perform any of the following operations.
• Turn power on
• Execute a print operation
Whenever the “LOW BATTERY” message appears, press SET to clear it from
the display. You should still be able to perform some Label Printer operations,
but some power intensive operations (like printing) may become impossible if
battery power is too low. In any case, you should replace batteries as soon as
possible or switch to the AC adaptor as soon as possible after the “LOW
BATTERY” message appears.
