Inkjet M-Codes

Top  Previous  Next

The Typical M-Codes for the inkjet marking head are as follows:

 

M15 -- Rotate Head to print in X positive moves.

M14 -- Rotate to print in Y positive moves.

M16 -- Lower Inkjet Head

M17 -- Inkjet Print Signal

 

 

Solution machines are slightly different:

 

M13 -- Rotate Head to 90°

M14 -- Rotate to 0°

M16 -- Lower Inkjet Head

M17 -- Inkjet Print Signal

 

 

* If either X or Y is printing backwards, print head is installed either 90° or 180° from necessary position.  Due to the fact that print heads cannot be tested during assembly, this is a required step for the installer.
