This Epson I3200-A1 HD is the 8-color high-definition variant of the I3200 printhead family. Designed exclusively for aqueous ink systems, it provides exceptional color accuracy, smooth gradients, and superior imaging performance.
The Epson I3200-A1 Water is a cost-effective, 1.33-inch wide printhead offering higher nozzle resolution than the existing I3200-A1, with up to 1200 nozzles per inch. This printhead is suitable for water-based inks.
Structurally, the Epson I3200-A1 and Epson I3200-A1 HD printheads are the same, both featuring 8 rows of 400 nozzles. However, they are not interchangeable; each printer must use the specific head it was designed for.
Compared with the standard I3200-A1 (4-color), the I3200-A1 HD features 8 independent ink channels, each driven by a single-row nozzle structure, enabling professional-grade color rendering for water-based printing applications such as photography, textile sampling, indoor graphics, and color proofing.
