Some of the older heads were interchangeable with Epson. I added a new topic.

Thanks, right now I only have to bring the printer up and running, and I'll post all the materials for the construction of this printer.

Hi Ivan,

how is the project running? Are you still printing?

Can you tell/share something of your code for printhead and arduino?
And how do you take the ink to the printhead?

greets

Hello! After some time of tests, decided to abandon the use of any industrial printheads, for my purposes, the printheads are not suitable. Instead produced its own print head, a very interesting and accessible way. At the moment the tests start with the print head of their own making, the results of at the moment is very encouraging as I finish the tests I will lay out the method of manufacture. In fact, this new method of printing, the Internet this method I have never met. Will be able to abandon adaptation and hacking printheads, my method allows you to print aggressive and highly viscous materials, with high precision and great performance, this option is available for ordinary people, cheap and simple.

Great.
Indeed industrial printheads are very delicate, expensive and difficult to manage.
I also am trying to find other solutions. I tried with heads jet based on electromechanical technology (the old needle heads). A few tips, however, able to launch any liquid. Now I want to try using piezo devices but I'm waiting for some parts to build the first prototypes.
This is to say that I am very interested in your work and what's new look.
I thank you publicly for your professionalism and for what you have sent to me privately. I'm working on.
Best regards.
Danilo
