Replacing the
Printer Memory
Backup Battery
(LP+ Only)
The Memory Cartridge provides storage of op-
erating parameters, forms, graphics and soft
fonts. A battery in the cartridge prevents mem-
ory loss if the printer power is switched off or
disconnected. When the battery is exhausted,
the printer will print “BATTERY LOW”. If this
happens, follow the steps below to replace the
battery.
