Videojet 6230 Thermal Transfer Printer

Thermal Transfer Printer for Flexible Packaging Materials

The Videojet 6230 is a low speed Thermal Transfer Printer that utilizes the latest technology to help reduce flexible packaging coding errors, and improve total cost of ownership (TCO) through a proven and cost-effective solution.

The 6230 Thermal Transfer Printer delivers easy usability with an intuitive tablet-like 5’’ touchscreen controller with CLARiTY™ interface. The simple ribbon path helps to ensure fast changeovers and a more efficient operation.

Code assurance comes as standard in the 6230 Thermal Transfer Printer when using templates created by CLARiSOFT™ or VideojetConnect Design software. These simple code creation tools help reduce operator interactions resulting in fewer user errors and unnecessary product waste and rework.

Available with Bluetooth®* connectivity, the 6230 can also be controlled from an Android phone**, simplifying operator interaction with the printer and production line.

In addition to the features available, the 6230 offers high-quality codes up to speeds of 150 ppm and is an ideal solution for users migrating to a digital solution from analog equipment like hot stamp and roller coders.

* A Bluetooth USB Adapter is required when using the Videojet 6230 App. The Videojet 6230 printer is warranted to work with the recommended Videojet Bluetooth USB Adapter only.
**The Videojet 6230 app supports Android OS, Version 4.4.4 (KitKat) or higher. The Android phone is required to allow Bluetooth tethering when using the Videojet 6230 App.
