The Linx 7900BC Bottle Printer is a total continuous ink jet coding and marking solution for the bottling industry.
 
This small character coder combines the features of the 7900 printer with a unique integrated printhead and air knife system which ensures that the bottle is dried prior to bottle coding.
 
Codes are applied exactly where you want them using Linx Black bottling ink 1058. This ink penetrates condensation and provides good print quality and permanence right up to the point of removal in caustic bottle washers.
