High-Resolution Inkjet Printers for Case Coding and Product Identification

Multicolor divider line

High-resolution inkjet printers can apply text, barcodes, logos, and graphics to compatible products and packaging. Case coding applications require equipment matched to the message, available print area, and production process.

Common printing requirements include:

  • Product names and identification
  • Barcodes
  • Logos and graphics
  • Alphanumeric messages
  • Information printed directly on compatible cartons and cases

Message layout matters when selecting equipment. A small product identifier and a larger case marking may require different print areas or configurations.

Reviewing the intended message helps establish the required print height and placement before selecting a printer.

  • Offers maximum print quality, razor-sharp text, scannable barcodes and logos up to  185 dpi per printhead
  • Ability to print on porous and non-porous surfaces
  • Co-Pilot Series offers print heights up to 5.6” of hi-resolution characters
  • CoPilot’s 4.3″ full color touchscreen provides access to the system’s internal messages and print functions
  • Compatible with Squid Ink’s easy-to-use Orion™ message creation PC software

Choosing a CoPilot Model of Squid Ink Printers Based on Print Area

Multicolor divider line

The required print area is the primary factor when choosing among CoPilot models of Squid Ink printers. A small identification mark may require a different printhead configuration than a large barcode, logo, or case-coding message.

Before selecting a model, manufacturers should establish:

  • The height and width of the complete message
  • The number of lines being printed
  • The size of any barcodes or graphics
  • The available printing space on the product or packaging
  • Whether one or more printheads are required
  • The required print placement

All Pro Technical Service can review these dimensions and discuss which CoPilot models can cover the required area. Before selecting the final configuration, consider substrate, ink compatibility, production line speed, and budget. Contact All Pro Technical Service to discuss the product or packaging, required message and available printing space.
