Hey fellas,
Have any of you worked with labeling and marking printers? We made MDF and currently us a Willett 460 CIJ type printer to print a string of text on the edge of the panel. The printer is long overdue for the bone yard and I need to find a replacement.
What are other's using; CIJ, DOD or the new Piezo type?
Related question: Is your setup stand alone? How do you change the printed message? My existing setup uses a 3rd party VB app to send the text string from Wonderware Intouch to the printer via the serial port. The venders I've talked to get the "deer in the headlights" look when I talk about such connectivity. I don't want to go backwards and have the operators type in the text on a proprietary keyboard.
