The Docod T180E is a TIJ (thermal inkjet) online printer / batch coding machine designed for printing dates, batch codes, text, barcodes and simple graphics on substrates such as paper, labels, cards, tubes and cartons.
The printer supports a variable printing height from 1 mm up to 12.7 mm. It is specified to run at up to 300 DPI (density), with a maximum production speed of about 120 m/min at 300 DPI.
The T180E accepts aqueous and solvent inks and can use 42 ml cartridges or an external CISS (continuous ink supply system). Use inks recommended by Docod for reliable performance.
Typical applications include food & beverage production, retail packaging, labeling, building materials, machinery repair shops, and other light industrial uses where batch coding, expiry dates, lot numbers, and simple logos are required.
Input power is 100–240V AC. The supplied DC output specification is 12.6V, 3A. Check the included power supply or vendor documentation for regional plug types.
The printer is compact and lightweight, weighing approximately 3.1 kg, making it suitable for mounting on production lines or portable applications.
Integration options vary by configuration. TIJ printers like the T180E commonly offer USB and Ethernet or serial interfaces for host connection and can be triggered by external sensors to print inline. Confirm exact interface availability with your supplier or model configuration.
The T180E can print alphanumeric text, dates/times, batch/lot codes, barcodes (common 1D/2D symbologies depending on software support) and simple logos/graphics. Message editing is typically handled in the supplied software.
Yes — the T180E is designed as an online (inline) printer and supports automation workflows. It can be mounted or positioned over conveyors and work with external sensors or PLCs for synchronized printing. Confirm mounting kits and I/O options with the vendor.
Docod TIJ printers commonly ship with PC-based message-design and control software. Windows drivers are typically supported. Check the product package or supplier for the exact software bundle and supported OS versions.
Regular maintenance includes keeping the printhead and surrounding area clean, using recommended inks and cartridges, replacing consumables when low, and following periodic cleaning/flush procedures outlined in the manual to prevent nozzle clogging.
The Docod T180E comes with a 1-year warranty. Warranty terms, service options and spare-parts support vary by seller and region — check with your supplier for extended support plans or on-site service availability.
Order genuine Docod-compatible cartridges, CISS supplies and spare printheads from your authorized distributor or the manufacturer to ensure print quality and avoid compatibility issues. Keep part numbers handy when placing orders.
Yes. The T180E supports multicolor printing when using the appropriate inks and cartridge configurations; however, color capability and color management depend on the chosen ink types and software setup.
Confirm required print height, resolution, substrate compatibility (paper, labels, plastic, coated surfaces, tubes), required speed, connectivity/integration options, environmental operating range, and availability of recommended inks/consumables from the supplier.
