The continuous and intermittent operating direct print module with
high resolution is designed for installation in horizontal and vertical
packaging machines. Convincing is the availability of left and right
versions. Thanks to the separate control unit the direct print module
can be integrated almost in each packaging process without any
problems.
Flexible labelling of packaging foil is effected either by means of
Windows printer driver included in delivery or by our proven design
software Labelstar Office/Labelstar PLUS.

direct print module has a large selection at different font types. It can
be printed inverse, in italic format or 90 degrees turned fonts.
The handling of our durable direct print modules is easy and
comfortable. The parameter settings are made with the keys of the foil
keyboard. At each time the graphic display shows the current status.
By a new-developed electronics a maximum print speed up to 400
mm/s can be achieved.
Time-saving printer update is possible by interface.

adapted to each task.
