Ink, Codarc® Cartridges and Typesets

Messages are generated using rubber typesets with an interlocking base which can be inserted into an easily removed typeholder inside the R250 printers. Special characters, logos etc. are all possible.

The typeholder automatically re-inks against a Codarc® ink cartridge which can yield up to 250,000 prints. Codarc® cartridges can be re-inked multiple times and do not splash or drip. You do not need any tools to quickly change an ink cartridge.

Both absorptive and air-drying inks are available in a wide variety of colours ..download ink specifications sheet
