battery contacts should face toward the back of the battery
cavity (Figure 7).
5. Insert the battery into the battery cavity. The printer beeps
one time when the first battery is installed.
Do not force the battery into the battery cavity. When
inserted properly, the battery easily slides into place and
the silver battery tab “locks” the battery (Figure 8). If the
battery does not easily slide into place, re-align the battery
based on step 2 above.
6. Repeat steps 1 to 5 to install the additional battery. Both
batteries must be installed for your printer to operate

more information, see
Charging the Batteries on page 5
