The new RICOH Gen-5 printhead has been launched as higher spec model of RICOH MH5420/5440 and RICOH MH 5421/5441. A minimised 5 pl droplet size and improved jetting of the printhead yields excellent print without graininess. The its grayscale features a maximum frequency of 50kHz, allowing increased productivity.
Each printhead has enhanced bonding technology for improved durability. With these new features, RICOH MH5320/5340/5320 Type A has further enhanced its compatibility with UV, solvent and aqueous-based inks.
