High-resolution printing eliminates the need for pre-printed cartons

The Marsh 8000 system supports two models of printheads — EN120 (.8″, 20mm) and the EN300 (2″, 51mm) — to deliver on-line printing of graphics bar codes and True Type® fonts with character heights from 1/16″ (1.5mm) to 2″ (51mm) for full generic case coding, eliminating the need for pre-printed cartons or providing flexibility of dynamic printing of blank shippers. Maintenance-free auto-purge printheads use innovative, patented solvent wash technology to thoroughly clean print heads at pre-set intervals. Customers have the flexibility to set the auto-purge function, through software, to coincide with shift start, lunch or breaks to ensure maximum productivity. Solvent and waste is automatically collected from the print head face and deposited in an easy-todiscard refuse bottle.

Intuitive, graphical, icon-based interface with WYSIWYG image editor

With the Marsh 8000 controller interface, message creation is fast and easy to learn. Drag-and-drop editing tools with cut and paste features and group alignment make creating messages a snap. The WYSIWYG image editor minimizes the risk of error. Advanced options allow users to customize date and time formats, as well as alpha and shift codes, making the system flexible enough to address any customer specific requirements.
