Gypsum Board - How the Domino Cx350i Adresses Marking Challenges

Marking plasterboard and gypsum products has traditionally been one of the most demanding print applications in construction materials manufacturing. Production lines operate at high linear speeds, and the coding required isn’t just variable data — it includes brand imagery, compliance logos, product identifiers, and sometimes machine-readable codes — all in a single message that must reflect the quality of the product itself.

The Domino Cx350i industrial printer was designed specifically to meet these challenges head-on, enabling manufacturers to achieve high-quality, large-format printing at full production speeds without compromise.

What Makes Cx350i Different?

High-Resolution Large-Format Printing

Using Piezo Drop-on-Demand (PIJ) technology, the Cx350i delivers large-format, high-resolution print directly onto gypsum boards — including graphics, true-type fonts, and machine-readable codes — in any required combination. Its printheads offer up to 65 mm print height, and multiple heads can be stitched together for even larger print areas.

Speed Without Compromise

The printer achieves clean, high-contrast marks at true industrial line speeds (100 m/min.+), meaning manufacturers no longer need to slow down production for quality coding.

Dependable Operation in Industrial Environments

Designed for harsh conditions like dusty plasterboard lines, the Cx350i doesn’t require factory air, scheduled maintenance, or frequent operator intervention. Its large-volume ink reservoirs can be replenished without stopping production, and the intuitive QuickStep interface reduces training requirements and errors.

Environmental and Operational Efficiency

Domino has engineered the Cx350i for sustainability. It uses vegetable-oil-based inks, generates no label waste, and helps minimise energy use and consumables — an increasingly important consideration in modern manufacturing.

Smart Connectivity & Support

Cx350i supports robust integration with factory systems — including ERP, MES, and Domino Automation software — and remote monitoring via Domino Cloud. This helps production teams monitor performance, optimise uptime, receive alerts, and gain operational insight.

Why It Matters for Gypsum Board Producers

Gypsum board manufacturers face multiple coding requirements simultaneously: brand identity, compliance info such as manual handling warnings or waste codes, traceability data, and more — often at line speeds that would overwhelm traditional systems. Cx350i consolidates all of this into a single, reliable inline printing solution that keeps pace with production without sacrificing quality.

By combining robust industrial design, high print quality, and advanced connectivity, the Cx350i enables gypsum producers to:

• Maintain brand integrity with crisp, large-format logos directly on boards

• Ensure compliance with readable regulatory marks

• Support traceability with accurate date, batch, or production data

• Operate with minimal downtime even in harsh plant conditions

• Monitor and control printing centrally for efficiency and consistency

Conclusion

For plasterboard and gypsum manufacturers seeking a single printer capable of high-resolution, high-speed, industrial-grade coding, the Domino Cx350i delivers a compelling combination of quality, reliability, sustainability, and operational intelligence.
