Section 1: Introduction
This manual describes the operation of the IJ3000 Controller. It includes programming
instructions to create and edit print messages for the IJ3000 Controller. The IJ3000 Con-
troller is used in conjunction with high resolution Impulse Jet, WaxJet and large character
Valve Jet type print heads. WaxJet heads utilize impulse jet printing technology, combined
with solid ink (wax). References to "Impulse Jet" include WaxJet, unless otherwise noted.
System installation and hardware set-up for each is described in separate system operat-
ing manuals. For the IJ3000 Valve Jet systems, refer to manual 5760-107; for the IJ3000
Impulse Jet system, refer to manual 5760-111; and for the IJ3000 WaxJet System, refer to
manual 2466-400.
IJ3000 Controller
The IJ3000 Controller consists of printer interface electronics, a color display with touch
screen, and a QWERTY style elastomeric keypad, in a sealed industrial enclosure. The
controller incorporates a Graphical User Interface (GUI) with intuitive, easy to use soft-
ware. The controller can be used as a stand-alone device or networked through built-in
Ethernet connectivity.
The IJ3000 Controller can be configured for multiple print technologies, including large
character Valve Jet, high resolution Impulse Jet print heads and WaxJet heads. Each print
head type utilizes a common CPU board and resident controller firmware, in conjunction
with a Print Head Interface board, unique to the print technology. This allows the IJ3000
Controller to drive multiple print technologies while maintaining a common operating plat-
form.
The IJ3000 Controller is also capable of controlling the input to Diagraph Automated Label
Printers (ALP). This allows the controller to become a single point control for dual technol-
ogy (ink jet and labeling) product marking applications.
The IJ3000 has an Ethernet Controller built into the CPU. The IJ3000 Controller can be
remotely controlled via the Ethernet connection. A programming interface document is
available (P/N: 5760-113) for the IJ3000 software interface.
IJ3000 PC Networking Software is available to allow multiple IJ3000 Controllers to be con-
trolled from one central PC. The IJ3000 Networking Software is also capable of connecting
database stored information to controller generated print messages.
