Linx CJ400
At Interpack 2011, Linx Printing Technologies launched a new design of continuous ink jet (CIJ) printer that was developed to suit production-line needs.
The company asserts that the new Linx CJ400 offers portability, fast set-up and a simple-to-use printer.
The CJ400’s Easi-Change Service Module can be changed in minutes using on-screen prompts, meaning that scheduled maintenance can be completed without the need for a trained technician or service calls.
This makes the device suitable for smaller customers or those in remote regions.
