FAQS
It manages multiple industrial inkjet printheads and technologies. Because it uses custom code, it can be modified for unique operations and functions. It does have an end-of-use life, and components can be refurbished or replaced.
We designed the Universal Controller with a familiar interface that makes getting up and running smoother. The interface is similar to Kodak’s 410 Controller.
The controller can manage the Fuji Samba G3L-based X-BAR print module and Kodak Versamark printheads and control other Samba-based technology.
16 X-BAR modules or 32 Kodak printheads. Contact us about configuration for other technology.
The operating system is Windows 11.
The controller comes with a 24-inch touchscreen. Operators can also use an included mouse and keyboard.
