Specifications

• Model family: xohda Dampers (DX6 / DX7 compatible)

• Type: Aftermarket ink damper assembly (compatible/non-OEM)

• Compatibility: Printers using DX6 and DX7 printheads and various Japanese large-format models—verify fit with your printer model before ordering.

• Function: Regulates ink pressure, traps air, and conditions ink before it reaches the printhead.

• Materials: Solvent-resistant housing and internal membranes suitable for common solvent, eco-solvent, and UV-curable inks (check ink compatibility).

• Dimensions: Designed to match common DX6/DX7 damper footprints; sizes may vary by variant — confirm with vendor drawing.

• Packaging: Individually sealed to prevent contamination.

• Warranty: Supplier-limited warranty (terms vary).

Highlights

• Cost-effective aftermarket alternative to OEM dampers.

• Engineered to work with DX6/DX7 printhead systems and many Japanese printers.

• Helps extend printhead life by reducing air ingestion and pressure spikes.

• Quick swap, drop-in style installation for minimal downtime.

• Packaged to protect from dust and contamination during storage and shipping.

Applications

• Wide-format and large-format printing (signage, banners, vehicle wraps, display graphics).

• Shops using printers with DX6/DX7 printheads seeking lower-cost maintenance parts.

• High-volume production environments that need reliable ink flow control.

• Replacement stocking for maintenance teams to minimize printer downtime.

• Prototype and short-run printing where fast serviceability is important.

Use and details

Installation:

1. Power down the printer and follow all manufacturer safety procedures.

2. Locate the existing damper in the ink delivery line near the printhead or manifold.

3. Carefully disconnect tubing and electrical connectors (if present); be prepared for minor ink spillage.

4. Remove the old damper and install the xohda damper in the same orientation—ensure secure tubing connections and airtight seals.

5. Prime the ink system according to your printer’s service procedures.

6. Run a nozzle check and perform any recommended alignment or purge cycles to confirm proper operation.

Compatibility & Selection Tips:

• Confirm that the xohda damper variant matches the physical mounting, inlet/outlet fittings, and ink chemistry used by your printer.

• If unsure, compare dimensions and connector types, or consult your service manual/parts diagram.

• Use dampers matched to your ink type (solvent vs. eco-solvent vs. UV) to avoid material degradation.

Maintenance & Best Practices:

• Replace dampers at regular service intervals or whenever ink flow problems, frequent air-draw, or printhead issues appear.

• Keep spare dampers in sealed packaging and store in a cool, dry place.

• Perform routine nozzle checks and purges to detect early signs of damper failure.

• Use recommended inks and avoid mixing incompatible chemistries in the same ink system.

Safety & Notes:

• These are aftermarket (non-original) parts—while they are designed to be compatible, OEM specifications and warranties may differ; check warranty and service implications with your printer vendor.

• Dispose of used dampers and residual inks following local regulations.
