Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use rechargeable AA batteries in my M210 Label Printer?
The Brady M210 and M210-LAB Label Printers are optimized for 1.5V standard alkaline AA batteries. Using rechargeable or lithium AA batteries is not recommended, as it may cause power-related issues or reduced performance.
Why am I getting a “No / Invalid Cartridge” error message on my M210 Printer?
