Preventive Maintenance
Extending Battery Life
• Avoid exposing the battery to direct sunlight or tempera-
tures over 104° F (40° 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 op-
timum media for your application.
• If you print the same text or graphic on every label, con-
sider using a preprinted label.
• Choose the correct print darkness, and print speed for
your media.
• Use software handshaking (XON/XOFF) whenever possi-
ble.
• Use the LCD display backlight only when necessary. Turn
it off whenever it is not needed.
• Remove the battery from the printer if it 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 abil-
ity to maintain a charge over time and can be recharged
a finite number of times before it must be replaced.
Always dispose of used batteries properly. Refer to
Appendix D for more information on proper battery dis-
posal.
Caution • Do not print while the LI 72 Wall Charger is plugged into the
unit. Unreliable battery charging can result.
