Brecknell E-6590 Guide
NOTE:
BATTERY REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS FOR
BRECKNELL THERMAL PRINTER (E-6590)
The clock battery in the E-6590 printer will last about 2 or 3 years if the printer is not
powered up. The battery is a CR1220, three volt Lithium coin cell (E-6681). If the printer will
not maintain time when powered off, follow the instructions below to replace the battery.
(641G-001A PRINTER KIT)
Step 1. Unhook printer power and
communication cables.
Step 2. Using a small phillips screw driver,
remove the small black screw holding the
compartment cover in place. Not all printers
have this screw.
Step 3. Remove 2 small screws located inside
the compartment. This will free the front of the
printer. It will flip forward exposing the inside of the printer.
Step 4. Carefully remove the old CR1220 battery by
pulling back on the gold strip holding it in the socket.
Insert the new battery in the socket with the + side up.
Step 5. Replace the front of the printer and install
the 2 small screws to secure it in place. Be sure no
wires get pinched between the front cover and the case.
Step 6. Replace the back cover using the small black screw
(if present) to secure it in place.
Step 7. Make a note of the date when the battery was
replaced to track battery life.
Step 8. Set the printer clock (see printer instruction
manual P-13174). NOTE: Removing the printer and
power supply from the Command Center and keeping
it indoors and powered up will extend battery life. See
details on the next page.
