Re: Powering the HP82143A printer Message #3 Posted by Steve Hunt on 30 June 2012, 8:18 a.m., in response to message #2 by Craig Ruff
Thanks - so it looks like I always have to have the battery pack installed.
Do you know if my AC adaptor is suitable? I think is must be because, after a bit of research, I see it was supplied with the HP41 rechargeable pack and with the printer.
By the way, the output is rated at 3VA, not 8VA - the printing was a bit small to read :)
Edit: one further question - if, as you say, the adaptor can't power the printer on its own, how does it manage to re-charge the pack and power the printer at the same time - something that's implied in the handbook?
Regards,
Steve
