Domino Cx350i is a high-resolution inkjet printer designed for printing large, high-quality markings directly onto packaging. It is particularly well suited for porous materials such as cardboard and corrugated board, and can be used to print barcodes, 2D codes, product information and other variable data. Direct inkjet printing can reduce the need for separate labels and pre-printed packaging versions while allowing packaging markings to be updated flexibly. This is especially useful in production environments where marking content varies depending on the product, batch or delivery.
Printing Large Markings and Codes
Domino Cx350i is designed for printing large characters and codes directly onto packaging. It can be used for a wide range of markings, including:
- barcodes and GS1-compliant 1D codes
- 2D codes and QR codes
- logos and graphics
- product information, batch numbers and serial numbers
- other variable data and machine-readable markings
The solution is well suited for coding corrugated boxes and other porous packaging, adding identification markings to transport packaging, and printing product and traceability information in industrial applications.
A Cost-Effective Alternative to Labels
Printing markings directly onto packaging can reduce the need for separate labels and multiple pre-printed packaging versions. This can simplify packaging material management, reduce storage requirements and make it easier to update variable information. Key benefits of the Cx350i include:
- reduced need for labels and less label waste
- lower storage requirements for pre-printed packaging and labels
- flexible printing of variable information
- clear, machine-readable codes
- the potential to simplify the packaging marking process
For applications involving porous materials, the Cx350i is available with vegetable oil-based inks. The most suitable ink is selected according to the application and the material being printed.
PIJ and Drop-on-Demand Technology
Domino Cx350i uses Piezo Ink Jet (PIJ) technology, in which ink droplets are generated using piezoelectric technology. In Drop-on-Demand (DOD) printing, ink droplets are produced only when needed to form the marking.
“Domino Cx350i is designed for printing large markings and codes directly onto packaging. Piezo Ink Jet technology and Drop-on-Demand printing provide accurate and flexible printing, while adjustable print resolution makes it possible to adapt the print to different applications. The printer is suitable for a wide range of markings, including barcodes, 2D codes, logos and variable data,” says Riku Ajanti, Technical Manager at KLINGER Finland.
Versatile Features and Flexible Integration
Cx350i can be integrated into production automation environments and existing systems. Print data can, for example, be transferred directly from production management systems to the printer. The printer features:
- high-contrast GS1-compliant 1D and 2D codes
- logo and graphics printing
- real-time variable data printing
- adjustable print resolution
- a range of printhead sizes and configurations for different applications
- integration options for production automation
Easy Operation for Smooth Production
Domino Cx350i is designed for quick setup and easy operation. The Domino QuickStep touchscreen makes it easy to operate and manage the printer in a production environment. Marking content can be updated according to production requirements, supporting a flexible and efficient packaging marking process.
At KLINGER Finland, the Domino Cx350i is used for our own packaging markings. It is used to print logos, QR codes, barcodes, product information, recycling symbols and handling instructions directly onto packaging.
The markings are designed and managed using Loftware software, which allows the content to be easily updated according to production requirements. This enables different packaging markings to be managed in one system and printed onto packaging with the information required at any given time.
