Thermal inkjet printers for crisp variable codes

TIJ uses cartridge-based print technology and is often selected for clean, high-resolution variable printing. Print quality and adhesion depend on the cartridge, substrate, mounting and production conditions.

Where to start

  • Cartons and labels
  • Compatible films and packaging materials
  • Barcodes, QR codes and detailed text
  • Compact line integration

Cartons and labels

Detailed text and machine-readable codes

Compact installations

Cartridge-based system with simple mounting

Coated materials

Specialty ink may be required after testing

CF-330 / CF-331

Handheld TIJ references listed in the CHEEF catalog. Compare these separately from online coding systems.

Before quotation: Confirm the model-specific manual, cartridge, required print height and a test on the actual material. Similar housings do not prove identical specifications.

Videojet 8520 / Wolke m610 touch

An online TIJ reference with a controller and a configuration-dependent printhead arrangement.

Before quotation: Confirm printhead count, individual print height, resolution at the required speed, ink cartridge, triggering and mounting.

Practical answers

What should I check before ordering a TIJ cartridge?

Identify the printer, controller and cartridge family first. Then check the substrate, required adhesion, drying and resistance. A cartridge that looks similar or has the same ink color is not enough evidence of compatibility.

Is every TIJ cartridge suitable for every printer?

No. Confirm the printer, controller, cartridge family, ink chemistry and substrate before ordering.

Can TIJ print barcodes and QR codes?

Many systems can, subject to controller capability, resolution, mounting and barcode verification.

What helps CHEEF recommend a system?

Provide the substrate, code artwork, print area, line speed, available space and integration requirements.

Send the material, code and line details.

CHEEF will help review technology fit, compatibility questions and quotation scope.
