Epson I1600-A1 · 1600 nozzles
Socks printer spare parts are the genuine compatible components that keep an Epson I1600-based Ningbo Colorido printer running day after day. They cover the ink supply chain, printhead maintenance and machine control, so you can replace worn items fast and keep production downtime to a minimum.
The genuine i1600 printhead, head cable, capping and cleaning consumables protect nozzle health and extend the life of the most expensive component.
Ink tank, ink pump, ink tube and damper form a continuous, bubble-free ink path from reservoir to printhead for stable delivery.
Every part is selected for the I1600 printhead platform used across Ningbo Colorido socks printers, for predictable fit and function.
Order a single piece for an urgent repair or stock wear items in advance; in-stock parts typically ship within 3–7 working days.
Ningbo Colorido supplies genuine compatible spare parts and consumables for the Epson I1600-based socks printer range, so operators can service their own machines without waiting for a full technician visit. The collection is organized around three systems: printhead and maintenance, ink supply, and machine control.
From the genuine EPSON I1600-A1 printhead and its data cable, through the capping station and cleaning consumables that protect the nozzles, to the ink tank, pump, tube and damper that deliver ink reliably, each part is chosen to match the original fit and performance. Keeping a small stock of wear items on hand is the simplest way to avoid unplanned downtime and to protect the value of your printer.

| C · Machine Control | Hands-free operator control of the printing cycle | Treadle Pedal Switch | On switch wear, intermittent response or physical damage |
Compatibility and replacement intervals vary with machine model, ink type, printing volume and maintenance routine. Confirm the exact part for your printer before ordering.
Every part is selected for the I1600 printhead platform used across Ningbo Colorido socks printers, so fit, voltage and ink flow match the original machine configuration.
Ink tank, ink pump, ink tube and damper cover the full ink path, so you can service the whole supply system with parts from one source rather than mixing vendors.
Capping, cleaning sticks and cleaning liquid keep the nozzle plate sealed and clean, the single most effective routine for protecting an expensive printhead.
With MOQ from 1 piece and typical 3–7 working day lead time, you can order a single repair item or keep wear parts in stock to avoid stopped production.
Reliable printing depends on the ink supply, printhead and control parts working together—not on a single replacement. Understand each group so you order the right part at the right time.
The ink supply chain carries ink from storage to the printhead without air bubbles or pressure swings. Each link in the chain is available as a standalone replacement.
The genuine EPSON I1600-A1 printhead is the core printing engine, with 1600 nozzles arranged in four lines of 400, 600 dpi resolution and 3.8–12 pl multi-drop droplets for water-based ink.
When the printer is idle, the capping seals the nozzle plate to prevent ink drying and clogging. During maintenance, cleaning liquid and lint-free sticks clear residue without scratching the head.
The ink pump moves ink through the tube toward the carriage, while the damper smooths pressure before it reaches the head. Keeping these parts fresh prevents banding and inconsistent color.
The i1600 Print Head Cable transfers print data and power to the printhead. A damaged or worn cable can cause missing nozzles, intermittent firing or image errors that look like a head failure.
The treadle (foot) pedal switch lets the operator start and control the printing cycle hands-free, which is useful when both hands are busy loading socks on the rollers.
Reliable output comes from a clean ink path and a protected printhead. The spare parts map directly onto the flow from reservoir to nozzle, plus the routine that keeps the nozzles healthy.
The ink tank holds the working ink, the pump circulates it and the tube carries it toward the carriage. Replace any link that leaks, kinks or loses pressure.
The damper buffers pressure before the ink reaches the printhead, and the data cable delivers the jetting signals. Stable flow plus clean signals produce consistent droplets.
When idle, capping seals the nozzle plate to stop drying and clogging. For maintenance, use cleaning liquid and a lint-free stick to clear residue and extend printhead life.
Group the parts by the system they serve - printhead and maintenance, ink supply, and machine control - so you can quickly find the component to replace.
Printhead & Maintenance
The i1600 printhead and print head cable, plus capping (cap top), capping station, cleaning stick and cleaning liquid, keep the nozzles firing and protect the head from drying and clogging.
Ink Supply System
From the ink tank, through the ink pump and ink tube, to the damper and the printhead - the parts that deliver ink under control. Replace a leaking or deformed link to restore stable, even flow.
Wear & Consumables
Capping seals, dampers and cleaning consumables are routine wear items. Keeping spares on hand prevents downtime, lowers repair cost and is the cheapest way to extend printhead life.
Machine Control
Foot treadle pedal switches and other control parts keep the machine running safely and comfortably. Match replacements to your printer model for a correct fit and reliable operation.

Core components such as the i1600 printhead are genuine EPSON originals (I1600-A1, manufactured in Japan and 100% tested before shipping).
Consumable and wear items such as capping, dampers, ink tanks and cleaning consumables are OEM-quality compatible parts built to the same fit and function specifications, so you get reliable performance at a lower replacement cost.
Most spare parts have a minimum order quantity of 1 piece, so you can order exactly what you need for a single repair. In-stock items typically ship within 3–7 working days; the i1600 printhead is usually available within the same window.
Lead time and stock status are confirmed with your order. Email Joan at joan@coloridoprinter.com.
The ink supply chain runs from the ink tank, through the ink pump and ink tube, to the damper and finally the printhead. When one link leaks, deforms or loses flow, replace the matching component.
For routine maintenance we recommend keeping a spare damper, ink tube and capping on hand. Tell us your machine model and ink type and we will suggest a complete set.
Replacement intervals depend on printing volume, ink type and how long the machine sits idle. As a guide, inspect capping and wiper seals monthly, replace dampers when print quality drops or ink flow becomes unstable, and always use fresh cleaning liquid and lint-free cleaning sticks during nozzle maintenance.
Keeping these items fresh is the cheapest way to extend printhead life.
The i1600 printhead is a genuine EPSON part and is shipped fully tested. Warranty terms are confirmed per order, since printhead life is strongly affected by ink type, maintenance routine and operating environment.
For consumable parts such as ink tanks, capping and dampers, standard warranty does not apply and regular inspection and replacement is recommended.
Ningbo Colorido socks printers use water-based inks, and the ink supply and printhead maintenance parts are matched to water-based ink systems.
Several components, such as the capping assembly, are also compatible with eco solvent ink for signage and other large-format processes. Always confirm ink compatibility for the specific part before ordering.
Yes. Alongside each spare part we provide fit and replacement guidance, and our support team can assist with installation questions by remote session, photos or video.
For printhead replacement and ink-system flushing we recommend following the provided maintenance sequence to avoid air bubbles and ink contamination.
