The internal Ni-Cd battery charger
operates when the AC adapter is connected to the K5100
printer. The normal complete charge cycle for fully
discharged batteries is approximately eight (8) hours.
There
are three LEDs at the front of the printer that show
the status of the internal battery charger. The following
table gives the meaning of various combinations of LEDs:

When the two green LED's are ON, the
charge cycle is complete and the AC adapter can be disconnected.
If the error indicator is present,
the batteries should be replaced.
