Benefits
Application coverage on demanding surfaces:
- Inks are quality engineered for lasting codes on a variety of products and surfaces
- Compact printhead design allows for easy integration into existing conveyance systems
- Advanced printhead slant control technology allows the printhead to be mounted at an angle so the text message style, density and height can be matched to the case design
Built-in colour touchscreen makes operator intervention easy:
- On-screen editor allows you to create and edit messages on the fly
- On-screen indicators report ink use, job status, message preview, counts and other production details at a central location for controlling and interacting with the printer
- Control and access can be limited with passwords to help ensure your production continues unimpeded
Simple usability keeps operators focused on production, not the printer:
- Built-in configuration wizard shortens system setup time by guiding the operator through the installation process
- Printer can operate in standalone mode using intuitive interface or be networked to PLCs or factory management systems for centralised control
- Communication protocols include Ethernet, RS232 and USB to match your operating requirements

Seamless integration with other Videojet products validates matching codes factory wide:
- Single point message selection is delivered to multiple devices
- CLARiNET® software connects all Ethernet devices, including scales and scanners, throughout the production floor
“The Videojet printers easily integrate with our processes because they are durable, reliable and easy to use, even when we run them 24 hours per day, up to six days per week.”
Bob Manzer – Plant Manager, Kettle Foods (case study)
“Crisp, clear codes are important to both our company and our distributors for tracking and tracing, warehousing and inventory, reordering, billing, and order fulfillment. It’s all interrelated. Today, that’s how companies identify the product, store it, inventory, pick and verify orders, ship and bill. Clear codes set the tone for the entire supply chain process.”
Jim Trivelis – President, The Original Philadelphia Cheesesteak Co. (case study)
“The automatic micro-purge system is really quite ingenious: no more non-productive downtime for cleaning!”
Jean-Christophe Bourgeois, Winery Manager Henri Bourgeois (case study)
