Introduction
This manual covers the use of all chargers currently of-
fered by Zebra for use with MP, RP, Encore, Cameo and QL
series mobile printers.
MP and RP Series Printers
The MP series (MP5022, MP5030, MP5033 and MP5044)
and the RP3 use NiCad batteries, which require periodic
“conditioning” to maintain their maximum capacity. The UC
and NCxx04 series chargers designed for these batteries are
equipped with a "Condition" cycle, which first discharges
then charges the battery. It is recommended NiCad battery
packs be conditioned once a week.
Cameo and Encore Series
The Encore and Cameo series printers use NiMH (Nickel-
Metal Hydride) battery technology. NiMH batteries must be
initially “cycled” several times before maximum capacity is
realized.
A NiMH battery is” cycled” by fully charging it, then fully
discharging it through normal use. This process should be
done when the batteries are new.
QL Series
QL series printers use Lithium Ion (LIon) batteries to
achieve maximum power output in a minimum volume. LIon
batteries don’t need to be conditioned or cycled, however
they can only be safely charged in a charger designed for
this battery type. Use of an unauthorized charger with a
LIon battery could damage a battery beyond use.
Safety Warnings
Avoid accidental short circuiting of any battery. Allowing
battery terminals to contact conductive material will create
a short circuit which could cause burns and other injuries or
could start a fire.
Use of any charger not approved specifically by Zebra for
use with its batteries could cause damage to the battery
pack or the printer and will void the warranty.
