Large character inkjet printer

High-resolution large character inkjet printer for secondary packaging

High-Resolution Direct Printing on Cartons – Clean, Efficient and Sustainable

The high-resolution large character inkjet printer enables on-demand marking of secondary packaging and folding cartons with texts, logos, barcodes and variable production data such as batch codes or expiry dates.
Thanks to advanced technologies such as Micropurge automatic cleaning, integrated ink recirculation and high-contrast print resolution, it ensures clean, precise and durable printing – entirely without labels.

The system also impresses with minimal maintenance requirements, intuitive touchscreen operation and flexible integration via WLAN or Ethernet.

As a manufacturer, we offer complete packaging lines from a single source – from product infeed and outfeed systems to carton erectors, carton sealers and palletizers, all the way to matching packaging machines and coding systems.

This gives you a perfectly coordinated turnkey solution that integrates seamlessly into your production – efficient, reliable and future-proof.

Operating Principle of the Large Character Inkjet Printer

Precise Marking with Intelligent Technology

The high-resolution large character inkjet printer prints texts, logos and barcodes directly onto corrugated cardboard and other porous materials – reliably, cleanly and with minimal maintenance.

It stands out with advanced features such as:

  • Micropurge technology: automatic printhead cleaning at defined intervals – without interrupting production
  • Ink recirculation system: reduces ink consumption and operating costs by reusing flush ink
  • Dual printhead control via one interface: enables print heights up to 140 mm or double-sided marking
  • Gyroscope and air-knife system: monitors mounting angles, cleans nozzles and prevents ink leakage
  • Connectivity via WLAN, USB, Ethernet and ZPL emulation: easy integration into existing packaging lines
  • Stainless steel housing: robust, durable and ideal for industrial environments
