Outdoor Signage & Vehicle Graphics
Solvent ink on flex, vinyl, and mesh for hoardings, shop fronts, and car wraps. The 508GS’s grayscale output helps smooth large colour fills and photographic elements that would band on simpler binary heads.

A summary of the printhead’s core capabilities — useful when comparing against other Seiko industrial heads or verifying compatibility with your RIP and ink system.
The 508GS sits in the mid-range industrial segment — wider than desktop heads, compact enough for multi-head carriages. Here is where its solvent/UV flexibility and 72 mm swath are commonly put to work.
Solvent ink on flex, vinyl, and mesh for hoardings, shop fronts, and car wraps. The 508GS’s grayscale output helps smooth large colour fills and photographic elements that would band on simpler binary heads.
UV-cured printing on PP film, promotional items, and rigid substrates where instant curing matters. Same 508GS head handles UV formulations on machines configured for that ink type.
Industrial label lines, QR and barcode printing, pharmaceutical and cosmetic packaging, and garment care tags — jobs that need crisp small text and readable codes at production speed.
If your printer shipped with a 508GS — on Infiniti, Icontek, CrystalJet, Kerajet, or KingJet solvent/UV platforms — this is the direct replacement part. KingJet India can confirm fitment against your exact model before you order.
Reference data for procurement, RIP setup, and fitment checks. If you are replacing an existing head, match these values against the unit currently on your machine.
2 rows across a 72 mm swath — typical configuration on single-colour industrial heads for wide-format and label printers.
Maximum firing rate per nozzle. Actual print speed also depends on your RIP, pass count, and printer carriage acceleration.
Native nozzle pitch. Combined with 8-level grayscale, this resolution suits signage, vinyl, and mid-detail packaging work.
Two ink families on one head design — your printer firmware, ink supply, and curing system determine which applies to your setup.
