The Konica Minolta KM HS2000 is a genuine original high-speed shear-mode piezo on-demand UV inkjet printhead — and the official drop-in replacement for the discontinued KM1024i SHE 6PL. With 1,024 nozzles arranged in 4 precision-aligned rows of 256 at 360 dpi native resolution, a 6 pl drop size with up to 8-level grayscale, and a maximum drive frequency of 60 kHz — approximately 3× faster than the KM1024 Series — the HS2000 is engineered for high-speed single-pass UV inkjet system development. Its All-nozzle Independent Drive System enables simultaneous firing of all 1,024 nozzles simultaneously, unlike the 3-cycle drive of the original KM1024 Series. The HS2000 is also a Konica Minolta Approved Green Product, incorporating approximately one-third the petroleum-derived materials of its predecessors. Compatible with 25+ wide-format UV flatbed and hybrid printer models. Every KM HS2000 we sell at Digiprint USA is 100% genuine original Konica Minolta.

Frequently Asked Questions Is the KM HS2000 a true drop-in replacement for the KM1024i SHE 6PL?Yes — the KM HS2000 is the official Konica Minolta replacement for the discontinued KM1024i SHE 6PL. It maintains the same 72mm print width and the same nozzle unit surface area as the KM1024i, ensuring physical and spatial compatibility in existing printer carriage designs. The electrical interface upgrades to support the HS2000's All-nozzle Independent Drive and 60 kHz capability. If your printer originally ran the KM1024i SHE 6PL and you are replacing a failed head, the KM HS2000 is the correct current part. Contact our team to confirm if any firmware or driver updates are required for your specific printer model. What is the All-nozzle Independent Drive System — and why is it better than the 3-cycle drive?Traditional Konica Minolta KM1024 Series heads use a 3-cycle drive system, meaning the 1,024 nozzles are divided into three groups that fire in sequence — limiting maximum throughput. The KM HS2000's All-nozzle Independent Drive System allows all 1,024 nozzles to fire simultaneously in any combination, independently of each other. This is why the HS2000 achieves 60 kHz — approximately 3× the frequency of the KM1024 Series — enabling significantly faster single-pass printing speeds and more precise dot placement control for each individual nozzle. What does the Konica Minolta Green Product certification mean for the KM HS2000?The KM HS2000 carries Konica Minolta's internal Approved Green Product designation, indicating it incorporates approximately one-third the petroleum-derived materials of its predecessor printheads. This reflects Konica Minolta's materials reduction initiative applied to industrial inkjet components — reducing the environmental footprint of the head during manufacturing without compromising performance or service life. For print shops with sustainability commitments or environmental reporting requirements, this is a meaningful product attribute that most competing printhead listings do not mention. Do you ship the Konica Minolta KM HS2000 to Latin America?Yes — same day shipping from our Doral, Miami FL warehouse before 2PM EST. Our Miami location is ideal for Latin American Agfa Anapurna, JHF Vista, Flora, and Allwin UV production shops using freight forwarders in the Doral area.
