See it at PACK EXPO, Booth #2814! The 1050 high-resolution thermal inkjet printer from Markem-Imaje delivers enhanced traceability as well as customized product promotional coding in short runs, with serialized data and complex 1D and 2D barcodes, on fast-moving production lines in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and other industries.

Designed to excel at case coding in dusty, humid, or corrosive environments, the 1050 can produce text, logos, and high-density graphics with precision control of its 600 dpi printhead, which allows variable dpi from 1 to 600 for optimal printing. The flexible printhead can print codes from ½- (12.7 mm) up to 2-in (50.8 mm) high.

The 1050 is easy to maintain because it features ink cartridges that combine the printhead and ink, which means no moving parts. Snap-in and -out cartridges allow operators to maintain the 1050 with minimal line interruption.

The 1050 thermal inkjet utilizes the same easy-to-use 7-in touch-screen user interface with intuitive WYSIWYG as other Markem-Imaje products. It is fully-compatible with the company’s powerful CoLOS coding software as an option for network control of all Markem-Imaje printers.
