The Toshiba TEC CF1XL is a large-drop recirculating piezo printhead with 636 nozzles, native 36 pL drops up to 180 pL, and full-channel ink recirculation for high-reliability single-pass industrial applications including ceramics and packaging.
The Toshiba TEC CF1XL is the large-drop / extra-large-drop recirculating industrial inkjet printhead from the CF1 family. It is designed for applications requiring high ink coverage, opacity and reliable continuous operation with UV-curable and oil-based fluids.
The CF1XL features full ink recirculation through all channels, 636 nozzles at 300 npi and a print width of 53.7 mm. It has a native drop size of 36 pL and can jet drop volumes up to 180 pL. Maximum firing frequency is typically 4.8 kHz. The recirculation design provides excellent jetting reliability, automatic recovery from air bubbles and particle sedimentation, and support for higher-viscosity and high-gravity fluids.
It complements the standard CF1 (6–42 pL) and CF1L (approximately 64–90 pL) models, extending the CF1 family for applications that demand greater ink laydown, such as packaging, ceramics, texturing and high-opacity industrial printing.
Always verify the exact part marking and machine documentation before ordering, as interface and recirculation requirements must match the specific system.

Installation Warning
Printhead installation must be performed by a qualified technician following the official procedures of the printer and printhead manufacturers. Incorrect handling can permanently damage the nozzle plate, electronics or ink system.
The Toshiba TEC CF1XL is used in industrial single-pass and high-coverage systems requiring large drop volumes and recirculation reliability. Applications include packaging, ceramics, texturing and high-opacity UV printing. Exact printer model lists depend on the system integrator.
Compatibility must be confirmed against the specific machine’s service documentation or the integrator’s specifications before ordering.
Recommendation: Do not assume interchangeability with CF1, CF1L, CF1B or non-recirculating heads without verification of the physical interface, electrical drive, recirculation requirements and ink system.
Pre-Installation Guarantee: 100% brand-new, factory-original product. Each unit is inspected and sealed before shipment. We guarantee authenticity and factory condition upon arrival.
Store Warranty Policy: 30 working days warranty covering manufacturing defects. Warranty claims require complete unboxing video and professional installation video performed by an experienced technician following standard recommended procedures.
Final Sale Conditions: Once the printhead has been exposed to ink or installed into a printer, it is considered used and cannot be returned or exchanged. Please verify compatibility and installation readiness before opening the sealed packaging.
