The CoPilot Gemini is designed for label replacement. Featuring Squid Ink’s largest printhead with up to 5.6” of print height, the CoPilot Gemini prints high quality 360 dpi GS1 barcodes with ease. And don’t forget that ink jet consumable costs are typically 1/10 of the cost of thermal transfer labels and eliminate preprinted cartons and SKUs of label and ribbon inventory. Get rid of the label and print directly on cartons and cases! Any way you look at it, Squid Ink’s Gemini provides users with an affordable solution to meet their ink jet coding needs.

Production Floor Functionality

Designed with the operator in mind, the CoPilot Gemini features a 4.3” full color touchscreen that allows users to access to the system’s internal messages and print functions. Messages are created and edited on Squid Ink’s easy-to- use OrionTM PC Software and transferred via USB, Ethernet, wireless, or optional Windows® tablet. The large screen 10.1” tablet is ideal for users who want message creation and editing functionality on the production floor. For larger applications, an unlimited number of CoPilot Gemini printing systems can be connected via Ethernet or wireless network and controlled through one central Orion PC.

Designed For Your Application

CoPilot Gemini utilizes the same active ink system found in Squid Ink’s CoPilot Max printing system. The revolutionary design allows users the ability to tilt or rotate the printhead in any direction without making height adjustments to the ink supply. The system prints hi- resolution characters, razor- sharp text, scannable bar codes and great looking logos at industry leading 360 DPI vertical resolution at speeds
up to 220 ft/minute. The CoPilot Gemini also features a large 500ml snap-in cartridge, allowing users the ability to swap ink cartridges in a matter of seconds. The generous ink volume, quick-change ink cartridge, and user-friendly touchscreen design allows users to keep their line running, reducing downtime and maximizing ROI.
