In modern packaging operations, labeling and coding aren’t separate steps — they’re part of an integrated workflow that must deliver efficiency, accuracy, and reliability.
The Markoprint X1Jet — available through AT Information Products and Weber Packaging Solutions — wasn’t just designed as another standalone coder. It was built to work in harmony with virtually any label applicator on the market, transforming how manufacturers handle date codes, lot numbers, barcodes, graphics and more.
Integrated Coding: A Game-Changer for Label Lines
Rather than relying on separate coding stations that slow production and increase complexity, X1Jet slips right into your existing labeling workflow.
Here’s what integration looks like:
- The coder mounts directly to label applicators — including Weber models and other major brands — using optional brackets and hardware built for flexibility.
- Labels pass by the coder before they’re applied to your products, allowing the system to print high-resolution variable data directly on the label.
- Print dries fast, stays readable, and travels with the label onto the package without the need for an extra station or coding tunnel downstream.
This approach simplifies your line, reduces footprint and minimizes handling errors — everything you want in a lean manufacturing setup.
Why Markoprint Coders Integrate So Well
The reason behind X1Jet’s broad compatibility comes down to smart design:
Compact All-in-One Unit
X1Jet combines controller and printhead into a single unit — no external components to complicate installation. Compactness means it can be mounted in tight spaces on labelers of different makes and models.
Built-In Controls & Sensors
Unlike larger industrial coders that need separate photo eyes or triggers, X1Jet comes with a built-in photo sensor and flexible interfaces for PLC, Ethernet, USB or even Wi-Fi, making integration with external labeling systems easier.
Wide Range of Mounting Accessories
Horizontal and vertical brackets, flexible support assemblies, rotary encoders and sensors ensure the coder adapts to your mounting point — whether that’s on a high-speed rotary labeler or a simple in-line applicator.
High-Performance Coding Right Where You Need It
Once integrated with your label applicator, X1Jet delivers professional results:
- Up to 600 dpi print quality ensures crisp text and scannable barcodes — even on small labels.
- Supports 1D and 2D codes, logos, ingredient lists, and more, making it ideal for industries from food & beverage to pharmaceuticals to consumer goods.
- Uses HP thermal inkjet cartridges, which provide instant drying and low maintenance. A simple cartridge swap resets the printhead for best performance.
By coding before the label ever hits the product, you eliminate the variability and potential damage of on-product printing — a major advantage on difficult surfaces or irregular containers.
Integrate It With Any Line — Not Just Weber
Although AT Information Products provides X1Jet coders alongside Weber label applicators, the design intentionally supports a wide ecosystem of labeling equipment. Industry installers routinely integrate these coders on Pack Leader label applicator systems and non-Weber applicators with the right mounting hardware and controls interface.
This flexibility means:
- You can upgrade existing labeling lines without replacing the entire applicator.
- You maintain consistency in coding across different lines and product types.
- Installation and changeovers remain fast and low-cost.
Bottom Line: Inkjet Coders That Fit Your Labeler — Not the Other Way Around
Today’s packaging operations demand solutions that adapt — not systems that force you into costly line redesigns. Markoprint coders bring high-resolution inkjet coding directly to your label applicator, creating a smarter, more efficient production line.
Whether you run a Weber labeler, a Pack Leader label applicator system, or a third-party applicator of any brand, X1Jet can be integrated to deliver clear, durable codes on labels just before they’re applied, saving time, improving quality and simplifying workflow.
