For applications that require easily readable variable data codes on dark or difficult to mark materials, Videojet has designed the Videojet 1710 small character continuous inkjet printer. The printer uses
high-contrast, pigmented inks to create bright, clean codes on surfaces for which dye-based inks are not effective, such as colored glass, rubber tubing, plastic cabling and dark paperboard. It is capable of printing a variety of fonts in multiple languages, as well as linear bar codes, 2D DataMatrix codes, custom logos and graphics.

Uptime Advantage

• CleanFlow™ technology resists ink build up that can cause
  ordinary inkjet printers to shut down
• New conical ink reservoir minimizes natural effects of pigment
  settling
• Long run time between preventive maintenance; core life of up
  to 4,000 hours or 12 months, whichever occurs first
• Auto cleaning printhead for fast start-ups even after extended
  shutdowns

Built-in productivity

• Dynamic Calibration™ adjusts jetting parameters automatically
  to ensure high quality print
• The unique fluid system assures proper dispersion of pigments
  while printing, or when idle for long periods of time
• Print from 1 to 5 lines of text at high speeds

Special core engineered for pigmented ink

• Intelligent clustering of pigmented filters and components
  with similar life spans for reliability and easy maintenance
• New conical ink reservoir minimizes natural effects of
  pigment settling
• Core eliminates messy filter and pump replacement
