Thermal Inkjet Printers

High-resolution industrial coding with simple, low-maintenance operation

Labelline supplies thermal inkjet (TIJ) printers for manufacturers looking for clean, precise and reliable product and packaging coding with minimal maintenance.

Choosing the right thermal inkjet printer

Ideal for printing high-resolution text, barcodes, 2D codes, graphics and logos, thermal inkjet technology can be used across a wide range of materials including cardboard, plastics, metals, foils and wood.

With compact printheads, fast-drying inks and straightforward cartridge replacement, TIJ provides a flexible and cost-effective coding solution that can be easily integrated into modern production and packaging lines.

Size, speed & substrate

Print size, production speed, substrate and the amount of information you need to print will all influence which thermal inkjet system is best suited to your production line.

We have the right options

For some applications, a compact printhead producing a small barcode or product code is all that's required. Others may need multiple printheads, larger-format case coding or high-resolution graphics and variable data.

Matching with your needs

Labelline can look at your application and recommend a TIJ solution based on what you're printing, the material you're printing onto and how the equipment needs to integrate with your production process.

              Why Buy Your Thermal Inkjet Printer from Labelline?

              The right thermal inkjet printer depends on much more than print quality alone.

              Print area, substrate, line speed, production volumes, coding requirements and integration with your existing equipment all need to be considered before choosing a system.

              Labelline can help assess your application and recommend a thermal inkjet solution that's properly specified for your production environment. We can supply and install your equipment and provide the technical knowledge and ongoing support needed to keep your coding operation running effectively.
