Safety Information
Use Recommendations
- Because the printer uses a thermal printing method, it produces heat
during operation. Be sure to place it where it will receive adequate
ventilation.
- Don’t allow moisture to come in contact with the printer, the AC
adapter, or the AC Power Cord.
Outdoor Use Warning
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose this printer, its AC
adapter, or the power cord to rain or moisture.
Caution: Using AC Power
To use AC power (with or without the battery installed), you must
use the AC adapter supplied with the printer.
The AC adapter allows you to connect to worldwide (100-240 volt)
power sources. The AC adapter automatically adjusts to the correct
voltage when connected.
Check the power plug congurations and voltages used in your coun-
try. If you need a different plug or power cord than supplied with
your printer, you can either purchase a plug adapter locally or contact
your local reseller or Brother for assistance in acquiring a proper
cord set.
Battery Recycling Information
This printer can run on an optional rechargeable Nickel-Metal
Hydride (NiMH) battery. The battery is recyclable. At the end of
its useful life, please consider recycling options for proper disposal
(contact your local solid waste ofcials). It may be illegal under
various state and local laws to dispose of the battery in your solid
waste collection.

The RBRC seal on the NiMH Battery pack supplied for the
PocketJet 3/3 Plus printers indicates that Brother is voluntarily
participating in an industry program to collect and recycle these
battery packs at the end of their useful life, when taken out of
service within the United States. The RBRC program provides
a convenient alternative to putting spent NiMH battery packs into
the trash or municpal waste stream, which is illegal in some areas.
Brother payments to RBRC make it easy for you to drop the spent
battery pack at local retailers of replacement NiMH batteries or at
authorized Brother product service centers. You may also contact
your local recycling center for information on where to return the
spent battery packs. The involvement of Brother in this program
is part of its commitment to protecting our environment and con-
serving natural resources.
For users outside the United States, please contact your local
reseller or local solid waste ofcial for information on recycling
your used batteries.

Figure 4. Operation panel
Main Switch Functions
Power ON: Push once while the printer is OFF.
Power OFF: Push twice quickly.
Manual Form Feed: With power ON and paper inserted, press and hold the main
switch to feed (or eject) paper. Manual form feeds cannot be performed for ve
seconds after the printer has received any data in order to assure that printing is
complete before permitting a form feed. The button must then be held down for 1-1/2
seconds to start the form feed.
To Quickly Charge the Battery: With the printer off, push the main switch and
hold it down for two or more seconds until the POWER indicator begins to blink. The
POWER indicator light continues to blink until charging is complete.
To Power Off During Charge Mode: Push the main switch twice quickly (same as
when in normal operating mode).
Service Mode: After powering the unit on, press and hold for 2 seconds until the
DATA LED turns red. In this mode you may initiate self test printing (See Chapter 5)
or head cleaning (See Chapter 4).

NOTE: Additional functions such as Auto On, Auto Off, and Pre-Feed are available
for your printer through the PocketJet 3 Utility or PocketJet 3Plus Utility.
See pages 17-35 for details.
Indicator Lights
The three indicator lights—POWER, DATA, and ERROR— show both normal
operation and error conditions. Each light may appear as green, red, or orange, and
may either stay lit continuously or blink. The meaning of the many possible indications
of these lights is explained in more detail in Chapter 5.
Some of the more common indications follow:
• POWER light is steady green: The printer is operating on external power.
• POWER light is red or orange: The printer is operating on battery power. Color and
blink/solid indicates approximate charge remaining.
• POWER light is alternately blinking green/yellow: Battery is being discharged prior
to charging.
• POWER light is blinking green: Battery is charging.
• DATA light is steady green: Unprinted data is in the printer buffer or a command has
been received from the computer.
• DATA light is blinking green: Printer is receiving data.
• ERROR light is steady or blinking in any color (except when sending new ash code
or fonts): An error has occurred.
Please refer to the table in Chapter 5 that contains all combinations of indicator lights
and their meanings.
