Mutoh DF-49684 Printhead Overview

The Mutoh DF-49684 is a high-durability, eco-solvent micro-piezo printhead engineered for industrial wide-format inkjet printing systems. Based on the Epson DX5 hardware platform, this printhead features a green connector board (Green PCB) and serves as the official replacement for the discontinued black connector version (DF-49029). Designed with an optimized internal fluidic structure and superior chemical resistance, it ensures consistent, high-precision droplet placement even under rigorous, high-volume production cycles.
