Epson DX5 Solvent Print Head
The Epson DX5 solvent printhead is used by various Chinese solvent printers. This DX5 printhead allows fast speed, high resolution printing with eco-solvent or mild solvent inks. The Epson DX5 original printhead is delivered in a sealed Epson package.
This first generation DX5 printhead model is compatible with all DX5 based Chinese printers and it doesn't require any decoder. This is the original Epson DX5 printhead, it is not modified. Newer DX5 printhead models are available on the market but they are limited to certain printer models and require a special decoder.
This printhead should not be used on Mutoh Valuejet or Mimaki JV33 / JV5 printers as it has different voltages and therefore offers a different image quality.
