The CLARiSOFT license is held on the dongle supplied and unfortunately, we are not able to supply replacement dongles for individual licenses. However, we are happy to consider unusual circumstances and would always endeavour to work with you to ensure a new order for the software is processed quickly to get you up and running.

We do hold stock of the software in house and are able to supply on a same or next day delivery service, if required.

Please contact the After Care team on 01159 640144 to discuss your requirements or email aftersales@uk.interactivecoding.com.

We provide a label design service for all customers. Please contact the Technical Support team on 01159 640144 to discuss your requirements.

Please send all purchase orders to aftersales@uk.interactivecoding.com

For all queries relating to invoices, payments and accounts, please email accounts@uk.interactivecoding.com or call 01159 640144.

We will endeavour to evaluate all repairs within 2-3 days. A purchase order number is required before any repairs are made.

Once we have authorisation we will aim to ship the repair back within 2-3 days. We will keep in touch with you by email throughout the whole process.

We can provide a recommended spare parts package for your specific coder or to cover your install base, to ensure you have the most critical items on-site should you require them.

ICE spare parts have been developed specifically for the machines and are produced to the highest quality to maximise the performance of your coder. We cannot vouch for spare parts supplied from other suppliers and how these may affect the efficiency or print quality of your ICE coder.

The use of non-ICE spare parts will invalidate your printer warranty.

Please request these by emailing aftersales@uk.interactivecoding.com.

We offer an extensive portfolio of ribbon grades in various widths, lengths and colours.

We match the correct ribbon to each specific application to ensure print quality, speed and durability requirements are met.

Please contact the Aftercare team to discuss how we can help you find the most suitable ribbon for your operation.

There is no standard lifetime value of a printhead as this varies based on; the application, settings, size of the print, substrate, ribbon run, and whether genuine ICE printheads are being used.

The Zodiac printhead is not covered by the standard printer warranty.

A thermal printhead comprises a linear array of printing elements, or “dots”. Each dot is a tiny resistor and printhead resistance is a measure of the total resistance of all the dots. This resistance will vary from printhead to printhead due to manufacturing tolerance. The actual resistance of a printhead fitted to a thermal printer is critical to correct operation because the printhead resistance is a key parameter used by a control algorithm to decide on the amount of power to supply to the printhead in order to achieve good print quality.

Many printers require the user/engineer to manually enter the printhead resistance via dip-switches on the main control PCB each time a new printhead is fitted to the machine. This can lead to errors and consequent poor performance of the machine. The Zodiac avoids this by allowing the operator to enter the resistance (4-DIGIT) value using the main CLARiTY user interface.

Yes, we offer packages of ribbon and labels based on planned production to ensure that you have matched quantities on site.

If you would like to order labels or have any questions, please contact our Aftercare team by email at enquiries@uk.interactivecoding.com or call on 01159 640 144.

If you have a Vulcan machine, please provide the following details:

Yes, we stock an extensive portfolio of different ribbon grades, colours, width and lengths to meet your application requirements.

If you would like to order ribbon or have any questions, please contact our Aftercare team by email at enquiries@uk.interactivecoding.com or call on 01159 640 144.

Please provide as much information as you can so that we can offer you the best solutions. Useful information includes:

– Is this for a new installation?
– What coder do you have? E.g., is it Zodiac 53 mm/107mm or a Vulcan 76mm/107mm?
– What are you printing on to?
– What colour/width, length ribbon do you need?
– Are there any environmental factors? E.g., oil, water, heat, water, freezing, grease etc.
– Existing installations only: What is the serial number of your coder?

Please send your order request to us via email to enquiries@uk.interactivecoding.com

You may also call us on 01159 640 144.

However you choose to place your order, please ensure that you confirm the following details:

– Company name and address including your postcode
– Delivery address (if applicable)
– Your contact details such as phone number, mobile number and email address
– Details of the item(s) you would like to order

Our Aftercare team also provide support for consumables such as print heads, ribbons and inks, service and maintenance, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and extended warranty policies.

TTO is a contact print process that is able to print high-quality codes at excellent resolution across a range of flexible packaging materials. The process uses thermal energy to transfer ink from a carrier material (e.g. ribbon) to the packaging material. The process is very clean and versatile.

The process allows for printing directly onto packaging media and is therefore efficient in terms of process and material costs.

Genuine ICE printheads are marked with a label to quickly identify that they are genuine ICE parts. There are a number of third-party suppliers offering modified parts, claiming that they are genuine when they are not. The fake items are modified by drilling additional holes into the heatsink of the device. This creates a substantial risk of damaging the electronic components within the device. Modified parts also reduce print quality, printhead life and invalidate the warranty on your ICE coder.
