Genuine Kyocera KJ4B-1200-RC 1200 DPI aqueous printhead with continuous nozzle-near ink recirculation for maximum reliability at ultra-high resolution. Delivers precise 2–4 pL droplets at 80 kHz, industry-leading productivity of 101.6 m/min and exceptional image quality for commercial, packaging and textile printing.
The Genuine Kyocera KJ4B-1200-RC (officially KJ4B-EX1200-RC) is Kyocera’s flagship high-precision recirculating aqueous inkjet printhead designed for the most demanding 1200 DPI industrial applications. Featuring continuous nozzle-near ink recirculation, a large monolithic piezoelectric actuator and optimized fluid architecture, this printhead delivers outstanding jetting stability, precise small-drop control and industry-leading productivity. The recirculation system continuously moves ink past the nozzles, effectively eliminating drying, clogging and pigment sedimentation even with fast-drying or high-solids aqueous inks. Combined with a standard water-cooling system and integrated heater, the head maintains stable temperature and viscosity during long continuous runs. With 5,116 nozzles across a 108.3 mm print width, a maximum drive frequency of 80 kHz and variable droplet volumes from 2.0 to 4.0 pL, the KJ4B-1200-RC achieves print speeds up to 101.6 m/min while producing exceptionally sharp, high-resolution images. Ideal for commercial printing, packaging, labels, textile and other high-end aqueous applications where both image quality and production uptime are critical.
