In industrial labeling, companies today face a key question:
How can products be labeled more efficiently, sustainably, and flexibly, without labels, without using materials, and without complicated systems?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The answer to this question is provided by Thermal inkjet technology (TIJ)<\/strong>.
It enables direct printing<\/strong> \u2013 Precise, clean, and reliable, directly onto the product or packaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, you will learn why TIJ is increasingly replacing traditional labels and why REINER is using the technology in mobile devices such as the jetStamp\u00ae<\/strong> has perfected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 What is TIJ technology?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

TIJ stands for Thermal inkjet<\/strong>. The ink is sprayed onto the material with microscopic precision using small heating pulses\u2014without compressed air, without a mechanical print head, and without wear and tear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result:<\/strong> Pin-sharp print quality with minimal maintenance and maximum flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. advantages of TIJ technology at a glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Precise direct printing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

TIJ produces extremely clear prints \u2013 ideal for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • fine barcodes<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • QR codes<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Logos & Pictograms<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • variable data such as best-before date, batch or serial numbers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Even on materials such as cardboard, wood, or foil, the impression remains precise and clearly legible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. Wide range of colors for different industries<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    TIJ offers a wide range of certified inks:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Black<\/strong> for standard markings<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Yellow<\/strong> for dark surfaces, e.g., rubber tires<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • special colors<\/strong>, e.g., red and blue inks for egg marking<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      With suitable inks, even difficult surfaces can be reliably marked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      3. Easy integration into existing systems<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      TIJ systems can be easily integrated into existing processes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Bluetooth & Wi-Fi<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Excel, Word, and ERP systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • CSV support<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Data transfer via scanner (jetStamp\u00ae 1025 sense)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Without additional software or complex interfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        4. Intelligent barcode management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        With modern TIJ devices, you can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Print 1D & 2D barcodes<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Scan, combine, or reuse barcodes directly<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Merge content from multiple codes (jetStamp\u00ae 1025 sense)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Perfect for traceability, documentation, or batch identification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          5. Sustainable & resource-efficient<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          TIJ direct printing completely eliminates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • Labels<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • backing material<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • plastic rollers<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • unnecessary waste<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            This saves costs, reduces sources of error, and makes processes significantly more efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            One press \u2013 done immediately.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            3. where is TIJ used in the industry?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            TIJ is particularly suitable for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • food<\/strong> (e.g., best-before date on cardboard and foil)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Logistics & Shipping<\/strong> (Barcodes, QR codes, labels without stickers)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Metal & Plastic<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • automotive<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Wood\/Palletizing<\/strong> (EPAL-compliant markings)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Medicine & Pharmaceuticals<\/strong> (Batches, serial numbers)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              With mobile TIJ technology such as jetStamp\u00ae, you can directly on site<\/strong>, without lines, without a fixed station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              4 Why TIJ is a technology of the future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

              Companies are under increasing pressure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
