What are the advantages of the Epson 5113 printhead compared with DX5 and DX7?

 

2. Wide size


The 5113 nozzle is a 1.3-inch nozzle that is 30% wider than traditional DX5 and DX7 nozzles;

 

3. Fast


Due to the larger number of nozzles and the higher physical resolution of the nozzles, the 5113 nozzle machine can achieve 3PASS high-speed printing, and the speed of a single nozzle can reach 30 square/hour;

 

4. Low price


Compared to the market price of DX5 and DX7 nozzles, the price of the Epson 5113 printhead is lower.

With the shortage of supply and the soaring price of Epson fifth-generation heads, digital printing machines using Epson 5113 print heads have been launched on the market one after another. The 5113 print head model is named after the print head used by the Epson 5113 desktop printer.

 

The reason why the industry has the idea of ​​replacing Epson's fifth-generation head with 5113 print heads is due to several factors: It is because Epson has encrypted the fifth-generation head, which has led to the availability of the fifth-generation head and the price soaring.

 

And Epson's fifth-generation head is at risk of being out of stock, and users who use the fifth-generation head will have to retire the device. In addition, equipment manufacturers are optimistic about the performance of the Epson 5113 printhead.
