Epson 4720 head is one of The latest and most advanced Epson heads is for Sublimation printing machine (This head can be used for Banner printing machine (The Epson 4720 head has 4720 nozzles with Diameter 2.5 microns It can print at high speed and with extraordinary accuracy.
The Epson 4720 printhead uses water-based inks and has high resistance to clogging and drying. The Epson 4720 printhead also has Self-cleaning and self-leveling capability Which increases its life.
The Epson 4720 head is one of the best options for sublimation printing, in which the ink changes from a solid state to a gas state and penetrates the product. This method results in very high quality printing, beautiful coloring, high durability, and resistance to washing and drying. This method is suitable for printing on fabric, paper, metal, ceramics, glass, etc.
In this article, we are going to thoroughly review the Epson 4720 printhead and show how the Epson 4720 printhead can improve the quality and speed of sublimation printing and compare it to other Epson printheads.
Our main question in this article is whether the Epson 4720 head is a revolution in sublimation printing or not? To answer this question, we will use reliable sources and scientific criteria and present the results of our research and tests. We hope that this article can help you to better understand the Epson 4720 head and benefit from its applications in sublimation printing.
Technical specifications of Epson 4720 head
The Epson 4720 head is an inkjet printer head that uses technology. PrecisionCore Epson uses this technology. It uses chips MicroTFP It uses very small and precise nozzles. Each MicroTFP chip has 800 nozzles that can spray ink at high frequency and high pressure.
The Epson 4720 head contains 6 MicroTFP chips arranged in two rows of three. Therefore, the Epson 4720 head has 4720 nozzles With diameter 2.5 microns that can be done quickly 50 kHz and pressure 1200 kilopascals Spray the ink.
This head uses water-based inks that contain high-quality pigments. These inks have high resistance to clogging and drying, and can produce vivid, high-resolution colors.
This head also has self-cleaning and self-aligning capabilities, which increases its lifespan and requires less maintenance. The Epson 4720 head can be adjusted to a width of 1.3 inches Print slowly and carefully 600 dots per inch The following table shows the technical specifications of the Epson 4720 head:
| Characteristic | Amount |
|---|---|
| Number of nozzles | 4720 |
| Nozzle diameter | 2.5 microns |
| Spray frequency | 50 kHz |
| Spray pressure | 1200 kilopascals |
| Ink type | Water-based |
| Printing width | 1.3 inches |
| Printing accuracy | 600 dots per inch |
Comparison of Epson 4720 head with other Epson heads
The Epson 4720 printhead is one of the latest and most advanced Epson printheads designed for sublimation printing. This printhead can be compared with other Epson printheads such as DX5, DX7 and 5113 and their strengths and weaknesses can be examined. In this section, we will compare these printheads in terms of number of nozzles, nozzle diameter, spray frequency, spray pressure, ink type, print width and print accuracy.
Number of nozzles
The number of nozzles is an important factor in print quality and speed. The more nozzles, the wider the print width, and the fewer nozzles, the more accurate the print. The Epson 4720 print head has 4720 nozzles Which is the largest number of nozzles among Epson heads.
DX5 head has 1440 nozzlesDX7 head has 1440 nozzles And the 5113 head has 3200 nozzles Therefore, the Epson 4720 head has an advantage in terms of the number of nozzles and can print with a wider width.
Nozzle diameter
Nozzle diameter is another important factor in print quality and speed. The smaller the nozzle diameter, the more accurate the print, and the larger the nozzle diameter, the faster the print. The Epson 4720 print head has a nozzle diameter of 2.5 microns Which is the smallest nozzle diameter among Epson heads.
DX5 head with nozzle diameter 3.5 microns, DX7 head has nozzle diameter 3.5 microns And the 5113 head has a nozzle diameter 2.8 microns Therefore, the Epson 4720 head has superior nozzle diameter and can print with greater precision.
Spray frequency
This is a measure of how fast each printhead can eject ink from the nozzles. It is measured in Hertz, which is the number of ink droplets ejected from each nozzle per second. The higher the ejection frequency, the faster the print speed and the better the print quality.
Epson 4720 head with spraying frequency 35.7 kHz which is much higher than the Epson DX5 head with 8 kHzEpson DX7 head with 15.5 kHz and Epson 5113 head with 17.8 kHz This means that the Epson 4720 head can print at a speed of Prints four times faster than the Epson DX5 head, twice as fast as the Epson DX7 head, and twice as fast as the Epson 5113 head.
Ink type
This characteristic indicates what type of ink each head uses. This characteristic is very important for sublimation printing because the ink must be able to evaporate at low temperatures and penetrate the product.
The Epson 4720 printhead uses water-based inks that contain micronized pigments. These inks have properties that allow the ink to pass through the nozzles easily and adhere well to the product surface. These inks also have high resistance to clogging and drying, and can evaporate at low temperatures.
Epson DX5, DX7 and 5113 heads also use water-based inks but have less micronized pigments which makes the ink less fluid and less likely to adhere to the product surface. These inks also have less resistance to clogging and drying and require higher temperatures for evaporation.
Self-cleaning and self-leveling capability
This characteristic shows how well each head can clear itself of excess and unwanted ink and place its nozzles at the same level and distance. This characteristic is very important for maintaining the performance and life of the head because if the head is not cleared of excess and unwanted ink, the nozzles may become clogged and the print may become incomplete and irregular. Also, if the nozzles are not placed at the same level and distance, the print may become inconsistent and heterogeneous.
Epson 4720 head has the ability Self-cleaning and self-leveling This increases its performance and lifespan. The head performs self-cleaning at specific intervals, which keeps the ink flowing through the nozzles and prevents clogging.
This head also performs self-alignment when the printer is turned on and off, which ensures that the nozzles are at the same level and distance, preventing printing disruptions.
Epson DX5, DX7 and 5113 heads also have self-cleaning and self-alignment capabilities, but Less than Epson 4720 head They operate and require more maintenance.
A comparison of the Epson 4720 head with other Epson heads can be seen in the table below:
| Characteristic | Epson 4720 head | Epson DX5 head | Epson DX7 head | Epson 5113 head |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of nozzles | 4720 | 1440 | 1440 | 3200 |
| Number of lines | 8 | 8 | 8 | 4 |
| Number of nozzles per line | 590 | 180 | 180 | 800 |
| Number of nozzles per sub-line | 295 | 90 | 90 | 400 |
| Number of colors | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
| Nozzle diameter | 2.5 microns | 3.5 microns | 3.5 microns | 2.8 microns |
| Drop volume | 3.5 picoliters | 21 picoliters | 3.5 picoliters | 3. |
