The Epson L1440-U2 is a high-performance industrial printhead built on Epson’s PrecisionCore MACH (Multi-Layer Actuator Head) technology, delivering exceptional precision and reliability for demanding print environments.
High-Density Precision Engineered for accuracy, the L1440-U2 prints at up to 360 npi with a dual-row nozzle layout — making it well-suited for fine-detail and high-throughput applications.
Space-Efficient Design Its compact form factor is optimized for multi-head configurations. When multiple printheads are aligned, the reduced carriage travel distance translates directly into faster output and greater overall productivity.
Variable Droplet Control (VSDT) Epson’s proprietary Variable-Sized Droplet Technology gives the printhead fine-grained control over ink droplet size. This minimizes graininess, produces smooth gradients, and captures finer image detail — resulting in vibrant, true-to-life color reproduction.
Flexible Color Configuration With 8 channels, the L1440-U2 adapts to a range of color workflows:
- 4-color printing at 360 dpi per color
- 8-color printing at 180 dpi per color
Built to Last Advanced manufacturing processes give this printhead an extended service life, making it a dependable choice for high-volume industrial and commercial printing operations.
Compatible With The L1440-U2 is a direct-fit replacement for a range of industry-standard printers, including:
- Roland VS Series — Part No. 6701409010
