Information on use of the printer in legal metrology 
(legal-for-trade applications): 
The German National Institute of Physics and Metrol-
ogy (PTB) has issued an independent test certificate for 
the YDP20-0CE (see certificate for number). With this 
certificate, the printer can be operated in legal metrol-
ogy in the EU and the EEA. This applies only when the 
printer is connected to a weighing instrument that has 
an EC type approval certificate, or a national equivalent, 
certifying that the weighing instrument is verifiable for 
legal metrology. 
–  Set up the printer so that you can view both the print-
out and the weight readout of the connected weighing 
instrument
–  For verified weighing instruments in which e does not 
equal d:
For verified weighing instruments with e   d: For a veri-
fied weighing instrument that does not transfer the 
designation of the last display digit to the printer,  
configure the data printer so that the last digit  
of the weight value is inversely printed (see “Printer 
Port Settings” in the chapter entitled “Configuration”)
Note: 
For verified weighing instruments with e = d and d  
< 0.1 mg, inverse printing of the last digit of the weight 
value is not permitted.
If the printer is subsequently connected to a verified 
weighing instrument that is used in legal metrology, 
notify your local weights and measures inspection 
office, or contact your local Sartorius service center if 
you wish to have the data printer configured and pre-
pared for verification for legal metrology.  
The above does not apply to printers that are used in 
legal metrology upon initial commissioning.
