FCC NOTICE
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in
which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own
expense.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
European EMC Statement
This product may cause interference if used in residential areas. Such use
must be avoided, unless the user takes special measures to reduce
electromagnetic emissions, to prevent interference to the reception of radio
and television broadcasts.

GENERAL SAFETY
Notes: (1) Please read through this section before operating the machine.
(2) Unless stated otherwise, information provided is applicable to
all printer variants.
This printer is designed for use with AC power distribution systems TN and
TT, as classified in IEC 60364:
‘TN’ (any of following - TN-C, TN-S or TN-C-S) for example; a system
having one or more points of the source of energy directly earthed, the
exposed conductive parts of the installation being connected to that point
by protective conductors.
‘TT’ for example; a system having one point of the source of energy directly
earthed, the exposed conductive parts of the installation being connected
to earth electrodes electrically independent of the earth electrodes of the
source.
It is not suitable for connection to an ‘IT’ system for example; a system
having no direct connection between live parts and earth, the exposed
conductive parts of the installation being earthed. This therefore excludes
any ‘phase to phase’ connected supplies such as may be available in some
factories and/or countries.
If the supply fuses (located on the rear of the printer and the printer’s power
supply unit) are replaced, they must be replaced by a 2 amp T 5x20 UL fuse
- 230/115V – 50/60Hz for the printer and a 4 amp T 5x20 UL fuse - 230/
115V - 50/60Hz for the printer power supply unit V200006).
Installation must only be performed by qualified Easyprint personnel. For
customer installations, authorisation must be obtained from Easyprint A/S.
All relevant Safety Procedures must be followed. Failure to do so may
invalidate warranty.
The printer and its component parts must only be used for the purpose for
which they were sold, and for which they are designed and constructed. No
parts may be used for other functions.
DO NOT touch the printer or the controller with wet or damp hands.
DO NOT expose the printer or controller to water.
DO NOT run the printer without ribbon material, as this may damage the
print head.
DO NOT use the Cassette handle as a means of carrying or holding the
printer as this may result in the printer becoming detached from the
cassette causing a crushing hazard.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
1-4 25364 Issue 8 March 2018
ALWAYS disconnect the power to the machine before removing any service
covers. The power connector to the back of the printer must be removed.
The Communicator II printer’s mains plug must be removed from the mains
power supply.
ALWAYS keep hands and loose clothing away from the print head opening
whilst the printer is powered on, as there is a danger that the mechanism
will move without warning and present a crushing hazard.
DO NOT operate the machine with any covers removed. ALL covers must
be in place using the appropriate number of fasteners. It is essential that
electrical and non-electrical connector dust covers (provided with the
machine) are fitted to all unused connectors to protect against dust and dirt
and possible static damage to internal components.
Ensure all reasonable safety precautions have been undertaken. However,
please ensure that when working with / or around the machine, every care
is taken to avoid potential hazards. ALWAYS take great care around the
machine not to slip, trip or fall; especially if the machine is used in areas
where the floor may be wet or greasy.
Use only Easyprint ribbons.
Replace ribbons with care to avoid cutting hands or fingers.
Take care, in the unlikely event of an electronic fault causing an unexpected
start up of printer drive motors, to avoid possible injury.
Read the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for Cleaning Fluid (P/N WJ-111) before
using it with any Easyprint product.
There is a danger of electrical shocks from the electrical outlet. All
electronic checks must be performed by qualified personnel.
The information above is correct to the best of our knowledge, information
and belief at the date of this publication. The information given is designed
only as guidance for safe handling use, processing, storage, transportation,
disposal and release and is not considered a warranty or quality
specification. The information relates only to the specific material
designated and may not be valid for such material used in combination with
any other materials or in any process unless specified in text.

HAZARD INFORMATION
This document uses the following warning signs that give warning of a
hazard or danger:
Read the following important notices before using the printer. The hazard
information is prioritised into warning and caution notices.
Warning Notices
Warning notices denote a potential hazard to the health and safety of users.
These notices clearly state the nature of respective hazard and the means
by which it can be avoided.
Lethal Voltages
Handling the Compact 32c, 53c / Communicator II
Cassette Printer
Denotes Danger: Electricity
Denotes General Danger
Lethal voltages are present within this equipment when it is
connected to the mains supply. Only trained and
authorised personnel may carry out maintenance work.
Observe all statutory electrical safety codes and practices.
Unless it is necessary to run the printer, disconnect the
printer from the mains electrical supply service before
removing the cover or attempting any service or repair
activity, otherwise death or personal injury may result.
The Cassette handle is for removing the cassette only. It
must not be used as a means of carrying or holding the
printer as this may result in the printer becoming detached
from the cassette causing a crushing hazard.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
1-6 25364 Issue 8 March 2018
Replacing the Ribbon
Heating Element
Organic Solvents
Battery Replacement
Fuses Fire Hazard
Care must be taken when replacing ribbons to avoid cutting
hands or fingers.
The heating element and surrounding area become very hot
during use. To avoid the risk of burns, never touch the
heating element area of the print head.
Cleaning fluid contains organic solvents. Always wear
suitable PPE (goggles and clothes) to avoid contact with the
eyes and skin. Avoid inhalation of the vapour. Do not smoke
in the presence of the vapour or the vicinity of the printer.
Replaceable batteries should only be replaced using
batteries of the correct specified type and rating. Failure to
do so may result in an explosion hazard.
Used batteries should be disposed of according to the
battery manufacturer’s instructions.
To ensure continued protection against the risk of fire,
replace fuses with the specified type and rating only.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
25364 Issue 8 March 2018 1-7
Caution Notices
Caution notices denote a potential hazard to the physical integrity of
equipment / software but not a danger to personnel. These notices clearly
state the nature of the hazard and the means by which it can be avoided.
Damage to Print Head
Loss of Counter Data
Cable Routing
Mains Supply Voltage
Cleaning Materials for Print Head
Changing the print head without setting the new resistance
value may cause severe damage to the print head.
The counter values are not retained when the printer is
switched off.
To avoid damage to the cables or equipment, ensure that
the cables are routed clear from any moving parts.
To avoid damage to the equipment, do not exceed the
supply voltage stated in this manual. See “TECHNICAL
REFERENCE” on page 5-1.
To avoid damage to the printer components, use only soft
brushes and lint-free cloths. For cleaning, always use
Cleaning Pens (P/N VPR0223), Cleaning Fluid (P/N WJ-111)
and Print Head Cleaning Wipes (P/N MT25215).
Do not use high pressure air, cotton waste, abrasive
materials, metallic objects or degreasing cleaning fluids
(e.g., Benzene, acetone).
