The FlexCode Mini printer moves egg carton coding from contact coding into the world of digital printing. Best-before dates and production dates are easily created and automatically updated by the printer, even following an overnight shut down. Once a message has been downloaded, either by ethernet or USB stick, the printer can operate by itself in offline mode. Combined with Independent Ink Inc. specifically designed inks, cartridge shelf life and print life are greatly extended.

INNOVATION

The FlexCode gives the user a system capable of quickly adjusting to various printing environments and substrates. FlexCode cartridges offer greater flexibility in pre-selecting print settings, permitting the user greater control over print quality and cost. The software allows the user to make fine adjustments to the print environment settings in order to ensure the highest print quality while also managing the cost per print.

SOFTWARE

The MS Windows-based software provided with the system is extremely versatile; it can be configured to print a variety of items including graphics, a wide selection of barcodes (linear and 2D), text of various sizes and fonts and variable data from common database formats. The user friendly interface and software enables the user to design and print different types of information and to control the print image.

NETWORKING

Multiple print heads can be connected over Ethernet to a single message control PC. The Production Mode software allows message download to each print head and displays ink levels per cartridge. The software tracks cartridge ink levels even if the cartridge is removed overnight and re-installed in a different print head.
