Brand: Dimatix
Tax excluded. Shipping calculated at checkout
Availability: In stock
The Fujifilm Dimatix Sapphire QS-256/30 AAA is a genuine original Q-Class industrial inkjet printhead delivering VersaDrop binary and grayscale jetting from 30–80 pl at up to 900 dpi across a 64.77mm print width — the medium-drop variant of the QS-256 family. This listing is the without hose barbs version, configured with O-ring face-mount fluid ports for direct manifold connection. With 256 precision-registered nozzles, dual-ported fluid interface, integral temperature sensor, OEM-accessible non-volatile memory, and silicon nozzle plate, it is built for demanding UV, solvent, and aqueous wide-format production environments. Manufactured in Japan. Every QS-256/30 AAA we sell at Digiprint USA is 100% genuine original Fujifilm Dimatix.
Without hose barbs = O-ring fluid interface. This listing ships with O-ring face-mount fluid ports — no barbed fittings. The companion listing with hose barbs has the barbed fitting variant. The two are not interchangeable in a printer system without hardware modification. Always confirm your printer's ink manifold connection type before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the QS-256/30 AAA without hose barbs and the one with hose barbs?
Both are functionally identical QS-256/30 AAA heads. The difference is the fluid interface configuration: without hose barbs uses O-ring face-mount ports for direct manifold connection; with hose barbs has barbed fittings for flexible tube connections. The version your printer requires depends on its ink manifold connection design. Always check your current installed head or printer service manual to confirm.
What is the difference between QS-256/30 and QS-256/10?
Both are 256-channel, 64.77mm Sapphire heads with VersaDrop jetting. The QS-256/10 is the fine-drop variant: 10–30 pl, 1,200 dpi max, 50 kHz. The QS-256/30 is the medium-drop variant: 30–80 pl, 900 dpi max, 33 kHz. Your printer's OEM configuration determines which variant is correct. Always confirm before ordering — they are not interchangeable.
Do you ship Fujifilm Dimatix QS-256/30 AAA printheads to Latin America?
Yes — same day shipping from our Doral, Miami FL warehouse. Our Miami location is ideal for Latin American Durst Rho and Inca Onset production shops using freight forwarders in the Doral area.
