Linx Printing Technologies reports strong sales and positive feedback for the Linx 7300 Continuous Ink Jet (CIJ) printer, the company's latest innovation in cost-effective, fuss-free coding. The company's confidence in the machine's capabilities has been underlined with the launch of a new campaign offering new users "zero running costs" for the first year of ownership.
Launched in September, the Linx 7300 has already proved to be a huge success worldwide, as customers across a range of industries have already purchased and installed the machine. The Linx 7300's lower cost of ownership, and Linx's reputation for quality and reliability, have been cited as major factors.
"The overwhelmingly positive feedback from our customers is that we've developed a machine that meets their coding needs in 2009 and beyond," confirms Charles Randon, Senior Product Manager at Linx. "The take-up by our global distributor network has also been phenomenal, suggesting that the printer's benefits and cost saving features are being recognised worldwide."
The first UK sale was made within days of launch to a food manufacturer, who has purchased two Linx 7300s to replace competitor machines which had proved unreliable. The customer will make savings of £2000 per annum per printer from the Linx 7300's reduced maintenance requirements, thanks to the self-cleaning printhead and Linx's ability to offer variable service intervals.
Orders have been received from 48 countries, and as far afield as Australia, Thailand and Mexico, confirming the global reach of the Linx 7300.
Now Linx has underlined its commitment to the "zero running costs" message with an impressive deal that means any UK customer buying a Linx 7300 before 27 November will benefit from free inks and solvents, maintenance and breakdown cover until the end of November 2010.* The same offer applies to Linx's specialist machines for Large Character Marking (LCM), the IJ350 and IJ370.
The growing reputation of the Linx 7300 has been further enhanced after the printer received a prestigious honour from the organisers of French trade exhibition Europack.** One of the most important packaging shows in France, Europack has introduced a new scheme this year – the Flagship Products Awards – to alert visitors to the best new launches on display at the show.
The panel selected the Linx 7300 as one of six key products launched this year. The Linx 7300 was chosen because of its reduced solvent consumption which leads to lower costs for customers and is better for the environment.
This achievement is all the more remarkable because of stiff competition for the six awards. 38 companies submitted a total of 55 products for the panels' consideration. The Linx 7300 was the only CIJ printer selected.
