Global Inkjet Systems Announces Support for 2-Colour 300dpi Kyocera Printhead

Press release from the issuing company

Global Inkjet Systems (GIS), a leading developer of software, drivers, firmware and electronics for industrial inkjet printheads, today announced that it can now support the 2-colour 300dpi Kyocera KJ4-03T printhead.  

GIS has designed a new mini Head Interface Board (HIB-KY-2C) which connects to its existing Head Interface Board for Kyocera KJ4 printheads and developed the firmware and drivers to enable support for the KJ4-03T printhead. 

The KJ4-03T printhead has a print speed of 152m/min (simultaneous 2-colour printing at 300dpi) and an effective print width of 112mm. Its 2-colour capability effectively halves the number of printheads required in the printer and is proving a popular choice, particularly in textile applications. 

GIS can now support six different printhead types from Kyocera, further strengthening the company’s position as a leading supplier of electronics and software to inkjet system builders worldwide. 

The new HIB-KY-2C is currently undergoing trials with GIS customers and will be available in production volumes in Q3 2014.
