High-resolution, maintenance-free printers like FX ONE are meeting the rising demands of 2D coding, compliance, and cost efficiency.
There’s a shift happening in coding and marking.
Not on paper, but on the product itself. From QR codes on consumer goods to 2D DataMatrix codes on pharmaceutical packaging, manufacturers are under growing pressure to print more information, in less space, with greater accuracy.
It’s not just about readability. It’s all about the three T’s: Traceability, Transparency, and Trust. And most systems just aren’t built for it.
More Data, Less Space: The Rise of 2D Codes
Every product now needs to tell a story:
- Where it came from
- What batch it belongs to
- When it expires
- How to recycle it
- How to verify it’s real
A single QR or 2D code can carry all of this and more. But to work, your printer needs to deliver high-resolution marks — clean edges, consistent contrast, readable at speed.
This is where older systems fall short.
Why CIJ is Struggling to Keep Up
Legacy CIJ systems weren’t built for this level of detail. They handle use-by dates and serial numbers, sure. But modern, pixel-perfect barcodes? That’s a stretch.
Why Labels are Struggling to keep up
Labels can obviously have high resolution prints, but introduce others negatives: higher costs, material waste, adhesive failures, and production slowdowns.
Manufacturers need a better option. One that prints directly. Clearly. Cost-effectively.
We've Been Doing This Since Before It Was Cool
At Foenix, high-resolution isn’t a feature - it’s the foundation. The FX ONE series was built around this reality: that traceability and dense data would become standard. That day is here.
Enter FX ONE: Precision Without the Premium
Our technology delivers:
- High-resolution piezo printing
- Ultra-fine 80 picolitre drop size for crisp barcodes
- Gravity-fed, zero-maintenance ink system
- Ink saver modes for up to 80% cost reduction
No labels. No printhead replacements. Just clean, clear codes — every time.
And you don’t need a barcode specialist to run it. Just plug in, print, and go.
Yes, We Do GS1 - and More
From simple date codes to GS1-compliant UDI barcodes, the FX ONE handles them all. QR, DataMatrix, serialisation - whatever the spec, we’ve got you covered.
But we don’t lead with acronyms. We lead with performance.
Ready for Resolution?
If your coding system can’t deliver high-res, scannable, traceable marks, it’s not future-proof. It’s holding you back.
The
FX ONE gives you clarity, compliance, and cost control — all in one compact, industrial-grade printer.
