Original Roland AdvancedJET AJ-1000 Head Set Assy (1000011969 / 1000001354)
OEM Part Number: 1000011969 (Supersedes 1000001354) | Engineering Description: ASSY, I/J HEAD SET AJ-1000_01 | Industrial Seiko SPT Drop-on-Demand (DoD) Piezoelectric Heavy-Duty Solvent Printhead Assembly with Integrated Damper
AdvancedJET Industrial Solvent Architecture & Firmware Rev Notice
The Roland 1000011969 / ASSY, I/J HEAD SET AJ-1000_01 (officially superseding factory part number 1000001354) is an authentic OEM industrial drop-on-demand replacement assembly engineered specifically for Roland's super-wide grand-format production presses: the AdvancedJET AJ-1000, AJ-1000i, AJ-740, and AJ-740i. Built around an industrial Seiko Instruments Inc. (SPT) high-speed piezoceramic core, this complete head kit incorporates an integrated solvent sub-damper module, heavy-gauge grounding, and chemical passivations designed for Roland Eco-Xtreme / Eco-Xtreme i (AJ-CL) mild/industrial solvent formulations. Service Advisory: The updated 1000011969 head revision requires printer mainboard firmware version 5.00 or higher to ensure correct firing waveform synchronization and thermal curve compensation.
Product Overview
The Original Roland AJ-1000 Assy, I/J Head Set (1000011969 / 1000001354) is a heavy-duty industrial printhead unit designed for continuous commercial grand-format operations including giant billboard vinyls, mesh stadium wraps, building side murals, long-run banner lines, and commercial vehicle fleet markings across media widths up to 2.6 meters (104 inches) on the AJ-1000 and 1.8 meters (74 inches) on the AJ-740. Configured in a dual-line staggered carriage arrangement across 6 or 8 head positions, this assembly achieves rugged production speeds up to 90 m²/h.
Featuring an industrial all-metal steel construction with a wide print swath, the unit delivers high native drop velocity and tight dot landing accuracy across long carriage scan strokes. Configured to eject durable, high-impact droplet volumes, the assembly delivers deep pigment laydown and rich, weather-resistant solid saturation across uncoated scrim vinyl and PVC banners without banding. Delivered as a complete factory-sealed head set, the module includes the integrated fluid damper unit and electrical connection harness, restoring factory drop trajectory, platen clearance, and high-frequency fluidic pressure balance.

Key Features & Operational Advantages
- Industrial Seiko Core Reliability: Built for round-the-clock grand-format billboard printing, offering high drop straightness and acoustic resilience over billions of continuous firing cycles.
- Factory-Integrated Solvent Damper: Ships pre-assembled with the matched OEM damper unit, eliminating fluid starvation and hydraulic pressure spikes across wide scan sweeps.
- Aggressive Solvent Resistance: Internal cavities, manifold O-rings, and adhesive joints are chemically inert to Eco-Xtreme industrial solvent carriers, preventing cross-channel leaks.
- Direct Drop-In OEM Replacement: Fully replaces discontinued part number 1000001354, restoring factory jetting parameters and mechanical carriage alignment.
CRITICAL TECHNICAL & SERVICE ADVISORY
1. Mandatory Firmware Verification (v5.00+ Requirement): When installing the newer-version 1000011969 assembly to replace an older 1000001354 head, the machine firmware MUST be updated to Version 5.00 or higher. Installing this updated head on legacy firmware will lead to waveform pulse errors, droplet deflection, or incomplete firing cycles.
2. Platform Incompatibility (Seiko Core vs. Epson DX4 / DX6 / DX7): The 1000011969 is engineered exclusively for Roland AdvancedJET AJ Series printers. It is completely incompatible with standard Roland desktop or wide-format printers running Epson-based MicroPiezo heads (such as DX4 in SP/VP/SC/SJ models, DX6 in VS models, or DX7 in EJ/XF models). Physical mounting, voltage driving architecture, and fluid porting are totally different.
3. Staggered Carriage Slant & Registration Calibration: In the AJ multi-head carriage array, installing a replacement head requires physical mechanical leveling against precision carriage reference pins followed by Service Mode electronic dot registration to ensure inter-head alignment across both scanning axes.
4. Faceplate Maintenance Precautions: Never wipe the metallic nozzle faceplate with dry shop wipes or coarse paper towels. Clean only using approved lint-free swabs moistened with genuine Roland Eco-Xtreme cleaning solvent. Regularly inspect the capping seals and wiper blades to avoid dried solvent ink build-up along the nozzle row.
