The compact, high resolution printheads feature **2 Nozzles spaced at **0 Nozzles per inch

Piezo on-demand inkjet ejects ink drops utilizing deformation of small ink chambers composed of piezoelectric material, by applying electric field in accordance with signals. The principle of shear mode piezo actuation with shared wall structure allows lower power consumption as well as a high-density nozzle array.

High resolution, **0 nozzle per inch spacing has enabled arranging **2 Nozzle on a comactly designed print head. The KM**2 series consists of type L, M and S, corresponding to unit drop volume capabilities of *2pl, *4pl and 4pl respectively. The type M and S can be driven in 4 level grey-scale mode for reproducing high quality images with smoother tones.

Due to its specially designed internal structure, the KM**2 series boasts a wide range of ink compatibility, including aggressive solvent inks typically used for super-wide format printers. Inks which have high viscosity at room temperature,such as UV ink, can be heated up to *5 degrees Celsius with the H type's internal heater.

This series is specially designed to have a “wing” structure so that users can precisely align the print heads without difficulty. This feature allows easy combination of page-width printhead units for the purpose of single-pass high-speed printing. The same external design allows interchangability of different type heads on the same mount system.

This printhead is available for solvent inks and its nozzle plate which has depressed portion scratch resistant.
