Print batch numbers, expiry dates, barcodes, QR codes, and logos with exceptional print quality using compact, cartridge-based Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) printers.
Overview
What is TIJ Printing?
Thermal Inkjet Printing (TIJ) is a high-resolution coding technology that uses disposable ink cartridges with integrated printheads to print variable information directly onto products and packaging.
Each cartridge contains both the ink supply and the printhead, which means there are no pumps, filters, or complex fluid systems to maintain.
TIJ is widely used to print:
