A contrast printer that performs and behaves like a dye-based
printer, the Videojet 1580 C features innovations in hydraulics,
printhead, and cartridge designs that bring running time and
maintenance intervals to the same level as a standard
continuous inkjet (CIJ) printer. The 1580 C uses similar filters
as the rest of our CIJ range, with the same cleaning cycles and
preventive maintenance as a dye-based printer. Planned
maintenance can take place every 5000 hours, with no need
to reduce intervals because of using soft-pigmented inks. With
Videojet OPMTIMiZE software, the 1580 C can assess printer
efficiency and provide suggestions for improvement.

Uptime Advantage

• Increase uptime with an additional 8 hours minimum of run time
  using a make-up reserve tank that protects your production under
  normal operating conditions
• Patented cartridge design helps to reduce common faults by
  alleviating ink pigment settling in the cartridge and blocking the
  orifice, which can result in printhead clogging
• Videojet Dynamic Calibration automatically maintains superior
  print quality, for optimum uptime under changing environmental
  conditions

Code Assurance

• Lower the opportunity for coding errors with intelligent message
  creation functionality
• Automate code content without the need for operator
  interaction with user definable message rules
• Maintain consistent quality and contrast over time with codes
  that remain readable and don’t fade over time
