contains safety measures to protect affected persons.
The text within this area contains instructions for preventing damage,
recommendations as well as additional information.
SAFETY NOTICES
The printer is provided with a “EC Declaration of conformity” indicating electromagnetic
compatibility and electric safety according to the prescriptions of the “2006/42/EC MACHINERY
DIRECTIVE” marking:
1.
Do not start up the machine without first reading and implementing the prescriptions of the
“USER MANUAL” and the present “SAFETY NOTICES”.
2.
To protect against moving parts, the printing unit is equipped with the following guards: two
fixed side covers [RF1], [RF2], a fixed rear cover [RF3] and a removable front cover [RM1] for
changing the thermal ribbon, monitored by sensors [SENS_C1] and [SENS4]. By opening the
front cover, the printer is placed in MAN mode (manual) and the power supply to the motors
is turned off.The printer must not be used in an explosive environment or be used to treat
explosive materials.
3.
The printer must not be used in irregular situations such as working without guards being
correctly fitted to the machine; working with products other than those prescribed.
4.
After 7 years of operation on an 8-hour daily shift, a complete overhaul of the product is
recommended.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
1.
Be careful when moving or carrying the printer. Dropping the printer may cause injury or
property damage. The machine must NOT be used by the lid or the handle. For shipping by
sea or air, the parts must be packed in cases. For carriage by land, it is sufficient to package
the product in pluriball and cardboard boxes. If the machine is to be stored, the parts must
not be stacked.
2.
Do not open the printer during printing.
3.
When cleaning the surface of the printer case, do not use the cloth that is soaked in thinner,
trichloroethylene, benzine, ketone or similar chemicals.

On supports where there is an independent adjustment of the Printing Unit [PU] and the Printing
Plate [PP], it is always necessary to maintain a relative position between the two parts that prevents
access to dangerous areas. Also to obtain a good print quality, the print head must be positioned at
a distance from the edge of the rubber layer [RL], not less than 5 mm and that the Printing Plate
[PP] is always centered with respect to the Printing Unit [PU].

Product DESCRIPTION
Product Description
FUNCTIONALITY
The XTO2.ie is an electronic printer for "thermal transfer to film" that is able to write automatically
and directly on the plastic or paper film used in packaging machines. The packaging film must be
stationary during printing.
The XTO2.ie Intermittent codes the different production batches with variable text, barcodes and
logos extremely flexibly, ensuring high quality and fast printing.
In stand-alone operation, the label files created with the EASYCODE program installed in a PC can
be loaded in the printer using the USB memory stick.
PECULIARITY
• Print Unit very light and compact, easy to be installed.
• Easy to service and repair; easy system of ribbon passage for changing operation.
• Programmable printing steps and format printing parameters loadable by the touch screen
display (optional) or the P.C.
• Improve unit uptime: not necessary to uninstall the print unit from the line.
• Modular assembly: mechanic + electronic.
• Easy and fast replacement of electronic components (no interference with mechanical parts).
• HMI (Human-Machine Interface) user friendly.
• Simply ribbon changing operation.
• Simply print head and print plate cleaning and replacing.
• Printer management (parameters, labels, diagnostic etc..) with local EIDOS Touch panel or
remote PC with a Web Browser.

SYSTEM MODELS
WARNING! * the 45CV897/1 cable is supplied 7 meters long, but during installation
it must be cut as short as possible, to avoid the error signalling (E207) when closing
the front cover.
The cable must pass far from the cables that supply motors or
electrovalves, to avoid noises and spikes.

Product DESCRIPTION
Touch panel 53SDK21
It is a capacitive 7 "TFT colour graphic display connected via ethernet to the printer, from which it
is also powered. To apply the EIDOS Touch Panel to the packaging machine, it is necessary to make
a hole, to be made as per the drawing below. The fixing takes place by means of a sealing gasket
with IP55 protection degree. The EIDOS Touch Panel is therefore also suitable for applications in
humid or dusty environments.
Note: the maximum thickness of the sheet metal on which the Touch Panel can be
applied is 4.5 mm
