Overview

The HIB-XR-1002 Head Interface Board allows communications between the Xaar Nitrox range of printheads and the GIS Print Manager Board (PMB-C2/PMB-C8-3).

Updated software and logic drives the Nitrox printheads up to their maximum speeds.  Using the AcuChp information stored within each Nitrox printhead means that head setup is fast and simple.
