Product Recall for Zebra Prescription Printer Power Supply Units. The products present a risk of fire occurring at the power lead where it enters the appliance.

The product was subject to a product recall in 2016. The recall period has been expanded to include PSUs manufactured between October 1, 2006 and December 31, 2012.

Model: GK420d
Range of Desktop Printer models that may be affected: AP###, GC4###, GK4###, GK888xx, GX4###, GT8xx, HC100, H/LP/TLP/R###x (282x, 284x, 384x), PS4000, T2###, Thermal 284x, ZP4xx, ZP5xx
Range of Card Printer models that may be affected: BR1###, CN1###, J1###, P1###, SC1###, WM1###, ZXP Series 1, ZXP Series 3x

PSUs that serve as the power source for the above-named models of Zebra printers have been identified as potentially containing an improperly mixed phosphorus compound that is used in the flame retardant resin in the DC power supply connectors. This deficiency in the phosphorus based connector resin, when combined with moisture and humidity over time, can potentially lead to overheating or a fire hazard.

Users are advised to check if their PSU is affected and refer to the manufacturer’s recall page for further information.

Product Safety Report for Tesla Powerwall 2. The product presents a risk of fire as certain battery cells within affected units may develop internal defects over time. An investigation identified that battery cells manufactured by a third party may contain excessive lithium plating, which can lead to cracking of the cell casing. This may result in an internal short circuit and subsequent thermal runaway, increasing the risk of the battery overheating and catching fire.

Tesla has remotely discharged most affected Powerwall 2 units pending replacement. Any remaining affected units are being discharged by Tesla technicians.

Customers should ensure their Powerwall 2 remains online and check the Tesla app for a notification confirming whether their unit is affected. If a replacement is required, customers should contact their original Tesla Certified Installer to arrange installation.

Affected Powerwall 2 units will be replaced free of charge. If the original installer is unavailable, customers should contact Tesla Support on 01628 450630.
