Epson I3200 Printhead Capping Station - Hexagon

🖨️ Epson I3200 Printhead Capping Station (Hexagon Type)

Reliable Printhead Protection & Cleaning for Epson I3200 DTF Printers

Keep your Epson I3200 printhead performing at its best with the Hexagon-Type Capping Station – a critical replacement part engineered for precision, durability, and performance. Designed specifically for Epson I3200 printheads used in DTF and wide-format printers, this component protects your investment by preventing ink clogs, maintaining nozzle moisture, and supporting automatic cleaning cycles.

🔧 What Does a Printhead Capping Station Do?

The printhead capping station is an essential maintenance component that serves two key functions:

1. Sealing the printhead nozzles when the printer is idle to prevent ink drying and air exposure.

2. Assisting in cleaning cycles, allowing ink or cleaning solution to flush the printhead effectively and remove debris or blockages.

Without a functioning capping station, print quality declines rapidly due to nozzle clogs, uneven color output, or permanent head damage.
