				Battery and Safety Information   
					♦ You must charge a battery before using it. For optimal battery life, charge the battery within   
					three months of receipt.   
					WARNING: Use only the Monarch® 9496™ charger/adapter designed for Lithium-ion batteries   
					when charging. The battery might explode if used with a different charger. Refer to   
					the Operating Instructions provided with the charger/adapter for more information.   
					♦ The optimal battery storage temperature is -4°F - 104°F   
					(-20°C - 40°C). For more information about storage temperatures, see Appendix A,   
					“Specifications.” The battery may lose its charge capacity permanently if stored at   
					temperatures less than -4°F (-20°C) or greater than 104°F (40°C). For longest life, the   
					battery should be stored in a cool, dry place.   
					♦ Prolonged storage or operation of a fully-charged battery above 104°F (40°C) may cause a   
					permanent battery capacity loss of up to 10%.   
					♦ The recommended temperature for charging is 32°F - 104°F   
					(0°C - 40°C)   
					♦ Charging time is approximately 1 to 3 hours.   
					♦ Recycling Information - Do not throw in trash. Recycle to your local regulations. The   
					Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC®) is a non-profit organization created to   
					promote recycling of rechargeable batteries. For more information about how to recycle   
					
					ERC; 200 Monarch Lane Door #39; Miamisburg, OH 45342.   
					Caution:   
					Do not disassemble, short-circuit, heat above 122°F (50°C),   
					or incinerate the battery. It may explode.   
					♦ The battery should be charged immediately for either long-term storage or after the battery   
					has been exhausted from a printing session. Frequent charging prolongs battery life and has   
					no negative effects, such as memory loss.   
					♦ Do not let the battery get wet or come into contact with metal objects.   
					♦ Do not use a battery with a cracked case.   
					♦ It is normal for battery capacity to decrease up to 20% over the first   
					400 - 600 cycles of use.   
					♦ The printer uses battery power even when the printer is not printing. Remove the printer's   
					battery when the printer is not in use for a week or longer.   
					♦ Many factors affect your battery's performance, including the quantity of labels printed,   
					intervals of batches printed, percentage of black per label, and power management.

					Non-peel mode prints supplies in a continuous strip. Use these instructions to load labels, tags,   
					and receipt paper. The printer’s default supply setting is black mark.   
					Loading for non-peel mode:   
					1. Open the printer. See “Opening & Closing the Printer” for more information.

					This chapter explains how to   
					♦ clear label jams.   
					♦ clean the printhead, platen roller, and supply sensors.   
					Caution:   
					Do not use sharp objects to clean the printhead or touch the printhead with your   
					fingers. This may damage the printhead and require a service charge.   
					C l e a r i n g L a b e l J a m s   
					When you are printing and a jam occurs, a supply error message appears. To clear the jam:   
					1. Turn off the printer by pressing P.   
					2. Open the printer and remove the supply roll.   
					3. Use your fingers to remove the jammed supplies. Do not use sharp objects to remove   
					jammed supplies. This may damage the printer.   
					4. Clean the printhead and platen roller to remove any adhesive.   
					See “Cleaning” for more information.   
					5. Reload supplies and close the printer.   
					6. Turn on the printer by pressing P.   
					C l e a n i n g   
					Your printing rate and frequency determines how often you must clean the printer.   
					You may need to clean the printhead and platen roller   
					♦ after using seven to ten (7-10) rolls of supplies.   
					♦ when you replace the ribbon.   
					♦ in extreme temperatures, humid conditions or a dirty environment.   
					♦ when you see voids in the print.   
					Voids in print   
					♦ after a label jam.   
					You may have to clean the supply sensors more often if you receive supply error messages   
					frequently.   
					Use any of the following items to clean the printhead:   
					♦ A clean, soft cloth.   
					♦ A cotton swab moistened with isopropyl alcohol.   
					Caution:   
					Use isopropyl alcohol on the interior areas only, never on the exterior. Do not use   
					household cleaners to clean the printer.   
					♦ A Cleaning Pen (order part number 114226).   
					To clean the printhead, platen roller, and supply sensors:   
					1. Ground yourself by touching a metal surface before cleaning the printer. Grounding prevents   
					electrostatic discharge, which may damage the printhead.   
					2. Turn off the printer.   
					3. Open the printer and remove the ribbon cassette and any supplies.   
					Note: Do not use sharp objects to remove adhesive or label particles from the printer.
