Leader Lets You Have It Your Way

No matter what product you need to print, PrintStar Plus has the functionality to get the job done right.



PrintStar Plus Ink Jet
Printing System



Run one or two PrintStar Plus printheads for versatile single line
printing



Or run one series 1600 printhead for full character size and split-line capability.


Leader's patented SQ-60 no-clog ink allows users to leave ink in their printhead without having to flush their system.


The PrintStar Plus utilizes water-based or solvent-based inks for printing on a wide range or porous and non-porous surfaces.

True Versatility For Your Needs
PrintStar Plus users have the option of choosing from several printhead configurations. Five different print sizes are available: 3/8”, ½”, ¾”, 1” or 1-¾” character height. All printheads are capable of printing at 100% or 70% character height, offering 12 print sizes ranging from ¼” to 1-¾” in height. The 1” and 1-¾” (1600 Series) printheads even offer split-line capability and the option of printing full-size characters or half-size characters with the same printhead. That’s three different character sizes from one printhead. Whether you need separate printheads to print messages on two sides of a box, or a single printhead to print split-line small characters on one side of a box, the PrintStar Plus provides a solution. Best of all, each printhead is field-installable for future upgrade to meet your application’s changing requirements.

 

More Brain. More Brawn.
The PrintStar Plus is upgraded with software features that ink jet users need most: Increased memory locations for up to 128 messages, the ability to automatically print a manufacturing date and an expiration date, as well as a shift organizer to automatically separate and code different work shifts within your packaging operation. The PrintStar Plus also comes standard with a shaft encoder input for packagers using an encoder with a variable speed conveyer. On the hardware side, the PrintStar Plus features a built-in central air gauge to view regulated air pressure within the system and fine-tune your print quality.

User-Friendly System
The PrintStar Plus is designed to work as an integral part of your day-to-day packaging operation. PrintStar Plus’s state of the art input device provides quick and easy message programming and retrieval for the 128 message locations of 128 characters each. Resident software in the input device walks the user through a series of prompts to program and save each message for printing on-demand. If necessary, the input device even can be removed to prevent programming errors on the plant floor. The system also can be programmed and maintained with a PC through a standard RS-232 port. PrintStar Plus’s easy-to-use design and user-friendly software makes everyone involved a smooth operator.

Innovative Technology, Proven Reliability
PrintStar Plus utilizes Leader's patented micro-channeling technology, eliminating the need for a costly array of fluid valves. Leader's proven plunger technology distributes ink through a series of channels, keeping production and maintenance costs to a minimum, especially when compared to the costly valve technology common in most ink jet printers today.

Less Maintenance = Less Downtime
The PrintStar Plus is engineered inside and out for industrial strength operation. Heavy-duty gauge, coated steel cabinetry ensures continuous operation in rugged, real world environments. In fact, the Series 1600 printheads, encased in sturdy, stainless steel framework, are completely sealed and resistant to dust and water. If the printer does fail, however, a fix can be completed in less than five minutes. Quick and easy-to-install replacement printheads, circuit boards and air pump modules minimize downtime and eliminate costly service calls. Best of all, the water-based PrintStar Plus utilizes Leader's patented SQ-60™ no-clog ink, allowing users to leave the ink in their printheads for an extended period of time without flushing or cleaning, making it the most cost-effective, low maintenance ink jet printing system in it's class..
