Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) printing, Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) printing, Thermal Transfer Overprinting (TTO), Laser, and Drop on Demand (DOD) are the different coding and marking technologies competing to gain a significant market share in the industry. While CIJ printers have been commonly used, they are increasingly being replaced with other technologies due to their over-complicated nature and higher maintenance costs. Technological advancements are reshaping the industry, driving efficiency, and enhancing productivity. Among these printing technologies, TIJ printing technology is poised to capture a significant market share in the coding and marking arena. <\/p>

In this blog, let us investigate why TIJ is leading the charge into the future to keep your coding and marking operations cutting edge.<\/p>

What is TIJ Printing?<\/strong><\/h2>

Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) printing uses heat to expel ink droplets onto a wide range of porous and non-porous substrates. A thermal element is heated within the printer, creating a bubble that forces a droplet of ink out of the nozzle. TIJ printing is renowned for its precision, reliability, and versatility. TIJ printers are compact, easy to maintain, and offer high-resolution printing, making them an ideal option for a wide range of applications.<\/p>
