What You Get with the 508GS

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.

Print engine: Seiko piezo inkjet with 508 active nozzles in 2 rows, 180 npi native resolution, 72 mm effective print width
Droplet control: 8 grayscale levels; base drop 12 pl, combinable up to 7 drops for variable dot sizing; binary mode also supported
Throughput: Jetting frequency up to 18 kHz for industrial production speeds on compatible RIP and printer configurations
Ink types: Solvent ink and UV ink — confirm your specific formulation and colour channel with KingJet before installation
Ink supply: Single ink inlet; suited to single-colour heads or shared-ink setups on multi-head carriages
Nozzle plate: Non-wetting surface to limit ink adhesion and reduce clogging during idle periods between jobs
Protection: Factory-fitted damper assembly and nozzle guard for safer handling and more stable pressure on startup
Mounting: Horizontal or vertical orientation — match the original head position on your printer carriage
Channel design: Isolated channel technology — independent paths per nozzle for simultaneous firing
Supply: Genuine Seiko 508GS printhead from KingJet India — not refurbished or re-coded units

Applications

Where the 508GS Printhead Excels

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.

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.

UV Flatbed & Roll Systems

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.

Labels, Barcodes & Packaging

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.

Replacement on KingJet & OEM Machines

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.

Specifications

Technical Specifications

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.

508 Nozzles

2 rows across a 72 mm swath — typical configuration on single-colour industrial heads for wide-format and label printers.

18 kHz

Maximum firing rate per nozzle. Actual print speed also depends on your RIP, pass count, and printer carriage acceleration.

180 npi

Native nozzle pitch. Combined with 8-level grayscale, this resolution suits signage, vinyl, and mid-detail packaging work.

Solvent & UV

Two ink families on one head design — your printer firmware, ink supply, and curing system determine which applies to your setup.
