The new Videojet Excel® DN ink jet printer from Videojet Technologies Inc. is ideal for customers who want to print multi-line messages at high speeds, allowing users to reliably print 2 lines of code at speeds up to 916 feet per minute (279 m/min.), and print up to a total of 8 lines of information. The Excel DN easily handles complex codes, such as those that combine text, logos and even bar codes into a single message.
“The new Excel DN printer addresses the expanding needs of the marketplace by offering a greater number of lines of print at line speeds today’s manufacturers demand”, says Scott Benigni, product manager for Videojet. “For example, food companies in Europe need to put the CEE oval logo on their products along with standard lot, date, and expiration codes. The Excel DN is perfectly suited for this application.”
Other industries can benefit from the Excel DN’s expanded capabilities, as well. Canning customers can utilize the ¼” code height capability to print on vegetable cans. The codes need to be machine readable, allowing for use of vision systems to automatically read the contents of the can and ensure the right label gets on the right product in the warehouse. The Excel DN can also accommodate steel manufacturers who need to put similar size characters on steel products at line speeds over 600ft/min.
The Videojet Excel DN is the fastest multi-line printer in the Excel family of reliable, industry-proven ink jet printers for variable data printing. The printer delivers high-quality, multi-line codes from a single printhead for a wide variety of industries, including food and beverage, canning, building supplies, automotive and other high-speed applications.
An updated electronics package includes a WYSIWYG display, logo creation and CompactFlash® memory cards that simplify set-up, back up, cloning and upgrading to multiple units. The bright backlit display makes reading easy, even from a distance. The Excel DN also features on-board logo capability to create logos for regulatory requirements, branding and product decoration.

Included in this ink selection are fluids specially-suited for polyethylene and flexible polypropylene films, condensation-penetrating highly durable black and yellow ink for bottles and cans, direct-to-food, egg shells, and water washable inks.
