What do the indicator lights on the printer mean?
There are two indicator lights on the printer: the Status light and the Charging light. Each indicator light shows the status of the printer as described below.
Status indicator light:
A green light indicates the printer is operating correctly, while the red light indicates an error has occurred.

Flashing | Receiving data | |
Red | Flashing | An error has occurred. |

Charging indicator light:
With the charging indicator light, the status of the power supply can be checked. The charging indicator light has two functions.
1. Checking the charging status (when the AC adapter is connected)
Indicator light color | Indicator light status | Printer status |
---|---|---|
Orange | Constantly lit | Charging |
Off | Finishing charging | |
Flashing | Malfunctioning built-in battery |
2. Checking the battery level (while running off the built-in Li-ion battery)
Indicator light status | Battery level |
---|---|
Off | More than 60% charged |
Flashes once | Less than 60% charged |
Flashes twice | Less than 30% charged |
Flashes 3 times continuously | Almost empty |
When the indicator light starts flashing 3 times continuously, charge the battery. Frequently recharging the battery will diminish its storage capacity. We recommend always waiting until the machine indicates that battery needs recharging before doing so.
