KF3006-GL50A Printhead Thick film thermal printhead KF3006-GL50A The new high speed thick-film G-series (direct mount clip-pin interconnect) with the fast response anti-ESD thermal element and durable new protection film. !Applications High speed label printer High speed bar code printer High speed ticket printer Various high speed terminal printers !Features 1) Newly developed thick-film fast response thermal element is employed for this series and 6 inches/s or 150 mm/s is possible without thermal history control. It is possible to print 10 inches/s or 250 mm/s if external thermal history control is used. 2) 150km life realized by attributing durable new protection film. 3) New partial glaze construction makes it compatible with the thermal transfer application. 4) Market-proven G-series printhead construction ensures high reliability.
