Installing Batteries (Optional)

Your K5100 printer can operate with six "C" size nickel cadmium batteries. Do not replace these with any other type of battery. These batteries are available from Graphic Products.

The first step is to remove the yellow jacket from the printer.

Removing the Yellow Elastomer Jacket

1. Pull the jacket down from the top of the printer until it is clear of the top portion of the printer. Be careful that the jacket does not catch on the top row of keys. You may need to pull the jacket slightly away from the keys to allow it to start moving downward.

2. While holding the printer from the bottom, grab the top portion of the printer and lift it out of the jacket.

3. To replace the jacket reverse steps 1 and 2 above.

Installing the Nickel-Cadmium Batteries

Warning: See user's guide for information on disposing of nickel-cadmium batteries.

1. Remove the battery cover, located on the back of the printer, by pushing down on the arrow embossed on the back cover and sliding it off the base in the direction of the arrow. (See below.)

2. Insert the batteries following the diagrams imprinted on the printer case under the batteries.

3. Replace the battery cover.
