Printer Overview

Congratulations on your purchase of the Ex2 printer. The Ex2 hereafter referred to as ‘the printer’, blends quality and durability into an affordable package with state-of-the-art electronics and user-friendly features to redefine the standard in thermal printers. The printer uses a unique one button design to simplify operation, while its USB, RS232 serial, and parallel interfaces allow easy connection to your host system.

This manual provides all the information necessary to operate the printer.

To print labels or tags simply refer to the instructions included with the software you have chosen to create the labels. A Windows® printer driver can be found on our website (www.datamaxcorp.com) or on the included CD- ROM. If you wish to write a custom program, a copy of the 'Class Series Programmer’s Manual' can also be found on the CD-ROM.
