Thank you for purchasing the Van der Stahl Scientific hot stamp printer FEP-N2, FEP-OS-N2,
and FEP-V-N2. Please read through this operating instructions carefully to properly install and
use this equipment.
Keep this manual on hand when operating this printer.
FEP-N2, FEP-OS-N2, and FEP-V-N2 uses a hot foil transfer method. The type and type case are
heated and then pressed onto print tape.
FEP-N2 series is installed on Van der Stahl Scientific sealers such as OPL, FA, Fi and V-402 /
VG-602/402 series. As the sealer head operates up and down, the print tape (dry ink) transfers the
letters onto the pouch film.
Please refer to “3 Proper printer for your sealer” about the proper printer for your sealer. (FEP-V-
N2 is an option which is initially installed on V-402 / VG series and not sold separately.)
As a result of research to further improve the FEP-N2 series, some details in the operating
instructions may differ from your actual machine. For operating problems or product
information, please contact Van der Stahl Scientific.
