The Orion graphical package allows users to easily connect to Squid Ink industrial printers and create and edit message files from a Windows PC. The WYSIWYG message creation platform provides the functionality and versatility that today’s applications require.
Don’t let your messages be restricted by your software. Orion’s easy to use message creation format makes it easier to design and print the messages you want. Orion features True Type font support, multiple user definable time and date code formats including Julian dates and expiration dates, item numbering, logo file support, all standard linear and 2D bar code formats, and more. See today why more and more companies are relying on Squid Ink to provide the right solution for their marking and coding needs.
The Orion graphical software is print station oriented, not printer oriented. Messages can be created from one main print station and then sent to printers using an ethernet connection or transferred using a USB memory device. Orion features automatic printer detection that allows the software to find all Squid Ink printers connected to the network. There is no limit on the number of printer connections from a PC running Orion software with an unlimited printer license, giving more power to the user. Even better, dot matrix and piezo printers can be programmed from the same print station.
Orion’s modern day interface features a Microsoft Office ribbon UI, PC style operation, and easy to use WYSIWYG message creation. Orion message creation features include copy-cut-paste, undo/redo, multiple line text elements, character and line spacing, element-level invert, and much more. Orion also supports multiple languages, allowing users to switch from one language to another without the need for a restart.
