The Cost-Effective Choice: How Our Printheads Save You Money Over Time
Aug 06, 2026| Our HP printhead is not very delicate and prone to wear; we are unable to print solid fills due to damaged nozzles, banding. What are the characteristics of your printhead?
Answer:
Because your current printhead is an A3 printhead, which is mainstream in China. We also used this type of printhead 2.5 years ago, but encountered many issues. We now use the HP 841 printhead, which offers a lifespan 5 times longer than that of the HP A3 printhead. We use industrial printheads. The A3 is an office printhead.
In the long run, printhead replacement is the primary post-production cost for customers-sometimes even exceeding the cost of the machine itself. Looking at industrial inkjet printheads such as Kyocera, Ricoh, Starlight, HP, and Epson, the maximum printing width per head is typically only around 10 cm, or even smaller (such as 5.4 cm or 3.3 cm). This design specifically aims to increase head lifespan and stability, ensuring continuous output in industrial production environments.
On the other hand, wide-coverage single heads (over 20 cm) are typical for office printheads designed to reduce manufacturing costs. However, they come with a much shorter lifespan and require frequent maintenance due to issues like air intake, nozzle clog/burning, and missing lines.
