Vector XII

Vector XII Drop on Demand Large Character Printing System

The Vector XII large character industrial ink jet printer offers the modularity and versatility that manufactures and contract packagers need. With the ability to print up to 12 lines from 6 print heads, the Vector XII large character ink jet printer has the tools you need to get the job done. 1″ and 1 3/4″ print head sizes are available offering six print sizes ranging from 1/2″ to 1 3/4″. The Vector XII system can also be programmed and maintained with a PC through a standard RS-232 port.

User Flexibility

Vector XII users have the option of choosing from several different printhead combinations. Two different printhead sizes are available: 1”or 1 3/4”″ character height. Each printhead is capable of printing at 100%, 40%, or 26% character height, offering six print sizes ranging from 1/2”″ to 1 3/4”″. Users also have the flexibility to run up to 6 different printheads of any size at the same time. No other system has this versatility. All of these components are field installable for future upgrade to meet your application’s changing requirements. And unlike any other DOD printing system in the industry, Vector XII offers up to 12 lines of print from a single controller.

User-Friendly System

The Vector XII is designed for simple day-to-day operation. Vector XII’s state-of-the-art input device provides quick and easy message programming and retrieval for up to 128 messages. Resident software accessed from the hand-held input device walks users through a series of prompts to program and save each message for printing on-demand. The system can also be programmed and maintained with a PC through a standard RS-232 port. Vector XII’s easy-to-use design and user-friendly software makes everyone involved a smooth operator.
