Printing up to 30 cm per second and priced under €7,000, the Vortex 851R is the fastest and most affordable inkjet printer of its kind. The Vortex 851R enables users to print labels on-demand, providing more flexibility and creativity while saving storage costs. The roll-fed digital machine offers full-color drop on-demand thermal inkjet printing through its 70,400 nozzles on the Memjet printhead. It can print full-color on various inkjet coated materials in seconds.

The Vortex 851R is the latest in RTI Digital’s line of Memjet-powered label printers. The compact printer comes equipped with only the necessary parts and functions, resulting in low levels of maintenance in a highly affordable configuration. Additionally, the Vortex 851R offers some of the most environmentally friendly inks making it one of the most energy efficient and cost effective inkjet label printers on the market.
