  1. Mimaki DX5 head variations & compatibility

    Thanks everyone. Adam, it seems you have the most experience regarding this printer. Are you saying that I only need the print head with the green connector and I can take the 'PCB' off the old heads and put them on the new heads? Is the 'PCB' you refer to the part that is held onto the head...
