ABSTRACT A high speed method and machine for imprinting coding indicia on articles travelling in a line along the upper reach of a conveyor at an imprinting zone. The containers travel to the imprinting zone through a worm feed. Gripping force is applied to the containers at the imprinting location to immobilize same momentarily during imprinting. A pivotally mounted inking and printing assembly, including a multiple head printing wheel, is employed and is raised and lowered as a unit without stopping the machine. A single motor drives the machine but each member of the ink/supply and transfer means of the inking and printing assembly may have relatively different circumferen? speeds of rotation. The ink applicator thereof operates at a variable speed independently controlled selectively to vary the quantity of ink applied upon each rotation of the receptor ath therefor. The speed of the conveyor is controlled in relation to the number of printing heads on the printing wheel.
