Squid Ink's Solution to Versatile Hi-Resolution Ink Jet Printing System for Case Coding



February 15, 2006, Spring Lake Park, MN - Squid Ink Manufacturing, Inc., a leading manufacturer of superior quality inks, ink jet printing equipment, and material handling equipment, introduces the new PZ/4 Series III hi-resolution ink jet printing system. The PZ/4 Series III offers users more versatility for printing high quality marks on a variety of products at a cost-effective price.

The PZ/4 Series III is an ideal printing system for companies looking for a high quality and fair priced hi-resolution print system for printing bar codes, logos, and other high quality alphanumeric on corrugated cases. The PZ/4 Series III utilizes ink directly manufactured by Squid Ink, eliminating the multiple layers of distribution commonly associated with product marking while saving your company money.

Using industry proven shared-wall technology, PZ/4 Series III offers better print quality than competitive hi-resolution printing systems. With up to 256 addressable jets per print head, PZ/4 Series III boasts 180 dpi print resolution. The result is a system that produces up to 1.4", per print head, providing a maximum of 5.6" of print height of scannable bar codes, razor-sharp text and the cleanest logos and graphics of any industrial ink-jet printing system on the market. Whether you are printing SCC-14 bar codes for shipping containers, or batch numbers for product identification, the PZ/4 Series III has the functionality to get the job done right.

PZ/4 Series III users have the option of running up to four separate printheads from one controller. Whether users need separate printheads to print messages on two sides of a box, or a single printhead to print on one side of a product, the PZ/4 Series III provides a flexible solution.

PZ/4 Series III is designed to work as an integral part of users' day-to-day packaging operation. Fully functional ImageMaster® PC software provides users with complete control of their printing system, including ethernet connectivity, WYSIWYG message design, message storage and message retrieval. An optional industrial strength handheld terminal is available for users who want message control directly at their printer location.

Unlike competitive hi-resolution printing systems using the Trident® print engine, PZ/4 Series III printhead technology is not susceptible to vibration and will not lose its prime. In addition, PZ/4 Series III compact printheads do not require a lot of space in crowded package printing environments. PZ/4 Series III rugged design will withstand the most abusive industrial environments.
