Understanding the Printer Sounds
The printer plays sounds in response to several actions that you can
perform. Use the following table to understand when the sounds
occur and what they mean.
Using the Batteries
The printer uses a rechargeable 2200 mAh lithium-ion battery (Model
AB13) for power. You must fully charge the battery before you can use
the printer. When in Standby mode, a fully charged battery can last up
to one week without recharging.
Note: You cannot configure ESC/P from the Setup menu. If your
printer is originally in ESC/P and you want to change to Fingerprint
or IPL, you need to enter Exteded Test Mode and select the printer
language. For more information, see “Understanding Extended Test
Mode” on page 25.
