The unit is equipped with twice the number of nozzles mounted on the KM512 printhead, enabling the high density required to realize the 72mm print width.This increased width further enhances applicability to printing systems (e.g. Single-pass inkjet printers) that demand high productivity.Printhead power consumption is reduced by 50% through the use of a new, high efficiency piezo actuator.
Konica Minolta piezo on-demand inkjet heads are already driven using lower voltages than other inkjet heads and the new actuator used in the KM1024 reduces power consumption even further. This
makes the printhead ideally suited to “green” design and shows Konica Minolta’s ongoing consideration for the environment.Increased grey-scale levels produce richer tones and more subtle gradients making the printhead even more attractive to existing and new print applications.
