Complete inkjet coding solution for small character printing. Includes a Redimark TC12 Coder, Display and Controller Tablet, Starter-Sized Ink, TC12 Mount, and RediNet connectivity. The TC12 includes an on-board encoder for detecting line speed and direction and an on-board product sensor. If your line speed varies, consider adding an external encoder. If your products are shiny, consider adding an external product sensor that can be calibrated specifically for your materials.
The TC12 will be shipped with a free short run-sized ink cartridge. Please select the ink type you would like included.
Everything you need to start coding is in the box:
What is included when I order a new Redimark device? You'll receive all components that are necessary to get you up and coding—a coder, tablet controller, TC12 mount, power supply, a starter-sized ink cartridge & low profile USB (as well as all necessary cabling, of course). And—it comes fully assembled. Just mount it in place, plug it in, and put in the cartridge.
What substrates and package types are compatible with Redimark coding systems? Using the right ink for the packaging material is critical, so use our Product Advisor to help with product selection if you are unsure about which ink to use for your substrate. Redimark systems can print on plastics of nearly every kind, paper materials such as labels, cartons, boxes, bags, and aluminum foil, trays, and laminated pouches. Flat surfaces are best, since the inkjet throw distance (the distance between the print head and the product) needs to be 1-3mm for optimal print quality. While we pride ourselves in the wide range of applications that are suited to Redimark inks, it's best to mark clean and dry packaging surfaces.
I am trying to code on a curved or uneven surface. How do I know that the TC12 will work for this? The TC12 has a jet throw distance range of 5mm or 3/16", or approximately a pencil width. The substrate that you are inkjet coding cannot be an obscure surface or have a radial curve greater than the 5mm throw distance from the print head. QUICK CHECK: If the inkjet code appears blurry, faded, or spread out, this could indicate that your product is too far away from the print head nozzles.
Is it easy to install the system? Yes, it's remarkably simple. It'll take about 5 minutes from opening the box to printing your first code.
How will I get notified of Software and Firmware updates? When you make your first system purchase, you'll automatically receive a Redimark Account. Your account allows you to receive notifications about your product. You'll be notified of any updates in your account and also via text message and/or email if you sign up for remote notifications.

Why should I activate my product? Product activation is required to operate your Redimark device. A wireless connection makes activation easy and automatic. If a wireless connection is not available, copy down the serial number from the label on the controller (these will be displayed on the interface the first time you power up the system)—you'll need to use those numbers get an activation code through your Redimark Account. Once you have the activation code, enter it into controller and you're good to go.
I just received my ink, what do I need to know to keep the ink in good condition? All ink cartridges should be covered when not in use. When production is paused, the cartridge should be removed and the nozzles should be covered. The T801K and T401K inks come with a storage clip for nozzle protection. It's recommended that you keep this storage clip. If the clip is unavailable, placing a small square piece of adhesive tape over the nozzles will keep them clean and ready to code. For complete care and instruction see our ink data sheets.
How do I know if my ink cartridge nozzles are clogged? You may have a clogged print cartridge if you are experience any of the following:
Your codes appear faded or streaky
The code is not even appearing despite the green light flashing and the print count incrementing
How do I unclog the print cartridge nozzles? Wipe the front of the cartridge with a lint-free wipe. The stain that should appear on the wipe should be a dark streak that looks like a thick black marker stripe. Proceed to wipe until this mark occurs. If problem persists, replace the cartridge.
What does the term "Idle Time" refer to? The term "Idle Time" refers to the decap time, or the time that a cartridge can be left uncovered while not in use before it needs to be covered using either the cartridge clip included with the cartridge or a small piece of scotch tape.
