Important Information

This document describes the demands on the printer and scale

implementation. Failure to comply prohibits use of printer with scale

according to the certiﬁcates mentioned below.

This document covers the following types and models of printers:

• Easycoder F4 and Easycoder F2 covered by certiﬁcate No.

0402-MVm030

• Easycoder E4 covered by certiﬁcate No. 0402-MVm031

Printers approved for scale-connection can be identiﬁed by a sign

of approval on the machine label on the printer's rear or bottom

plate, for example:

Use of the printer in accordance with Paragraph 8.1 of the European

Standard on metrological aspects of non-automatic weighing

instruments EN 45501:1992 and WELMEC 2.5.

• Essential characteristics

• Functions

• Receiving of weighing data

• Printing weight, price to pay, and price

• Printing bar code

• Printing graphic works

These are the only allowed functions of the printer. Note that, for

instance, calculation of price is to be performed by the scale. The

printer may only act as a non-intelligent printer without any calculus

performed on received data.

Intermec Scale-Connected Printers –Important Information Ed. 12

Important Information

The operating system (ﬁrmware) of the printer is:

EasyCoder F2 and F4: Intermec Fingerprint v7.32 or higher.

EasyCoder E4: Intermec EasyCoder E4 Direct Protocol

v2.01 or higher.

Printing is direct thermal or thermal transfer. With a 4-inch

printhead, a maximum of 104 signs per row with signs height ≥

2 mm. With a 2-inch printhead, a maximum of 52 signs per row

with signs height ≥2 mm.

Conditional parts:

The printer may be equipped with the following protective

interface:

• RS-232 serial communication

The only allowed printing command to be used in the printer is

the Direct Protocol command

LAYOUT RUN

and

LAYOUT INPUT

associated commands.

The printer is connected to the Scale through a RS-232 connection.

With a protected command in the scale, the scale can be ordered

to send a command sequence for each label through the RS-232

interface.

The command sequence sent from the scale for every label is

as follows:

LAYOUT RUN "LAY1" Retrieve already stored format and

read values

<STX>

Value1 Start ﬁlling in the data ﬁelds of the label

Value2

...

ValueN where N is the same number of vari-

ables as in stored layout

<EOT>

PF1 Print one label

The layout recalled is stored in the printer memory. The layout can

beprogrammedthroughtheprinter’sserialorparallelinterfacefrom

a PC and is stored in non-volatile memory (ﬂash, memory card) and

recalled with the

LAYOUT RUN "xxxx"

command.
