Common questions

Inkjet coding FAQs

Can large character inkjet replace labels?

In many outer-case applications it can reduce labels or pre-printed boxes, depending on barcode grade, customer requirements and surface quality.

Can it print on porous cartons?

Yes. Porous carton coding is a common use, with ink selection and print height matched to the packaging.

Can it connect to a database or line system?

Many systems can receive variable data from a controller, scanner or database, depending on the model and integration scope.
