Epson announces the release of two new printheads

Epson has announced that it will launch sales of two new models of inkjet printheads that support solvent inks from April 2023. The new I3200(8)-S1HD and S800-S1 are compatible with various inks used for industrial applications. In addition to aqueous, UV-cured, and eco-solvent inks, they support oil-based, solvent, and other types of inks for digital printing applications in production printing.

The I3200(8)-S1HD can handle up to eight colours of ink and deliver resolutions up to 1200 dpi, enabling the rendering of high-resolution images in various situations.

The S800-S1 is equipped with only one chip. Its compact design helps to improve productivity in printing environments with limited space.

These new products will expand Epson's offerings in the PrecisionCore printhead series and enable the company to support an even broader range of industrial and other digital printing environments for applications such as marking/coding, signage, and printed electronics.

The two new products will enable the implementation of inkjet printing technology in new fields, particularly in industrial printing applications.

Product Features
I3200(8)-S1HD

• Solvent compatibility: Compatibility with solvents with high solubility gives this printhead the ability to meet the requirements for printing items such as displays and photovoltaic cells.

• Up to eight different ink colours can be used in addition to CMYK colour inks. Liquids of different types can also be jetted, enabling this printhead to adapt to industrial printing applications flexibly. It also delivers 1200 dpi high-definition image quality, making it ideal for high-speed single-pass and multi-pass printing.

S800-S1

• Compact design: The S800-S1 is compatible with the same inks as the I3200(8)-S1HD, the single-chip design enables it to print where space is limited and in close proximity to substrates with a 3D surface.
