Epson XP600 Printhead FA09121 / FA09xxx
Brand: Epson
Tax excluded. Shipping calculated at checkout
Availability: In stock
The Epson XP600 printhead FA09121 is the widely used F1080 / DX11 generation printhead for DTF, UV flatbed, and eco-solvent printing. It is functionally identical to the F1080-A1 — the difference is the revision code stamped on the chip. If your printer or supplier specifies FA09121 or FA09xxx, this is the correct head. Every unit we sell at Digiprint USA is 100% genuine original with the Epson seal intact.

FA09121 vs F1080-A1 — Are They the Same?
Yes — the FA09121 and F1080-A1 are the same physical printhead from the same Epson production line. FA09121 is a later revision code. Both fit identical printers and perform identically. The key difference is that the F1080-A1 version comes with the Epson Seal Logo confirming genuine original status — this listing is the same printhead without the seal, at a lower price point. If your printer manual or board specifies FA09xxx, this is the correct listing to order from.

XP600 vs I3200-A1 — Which Should You Choose?
The XP600 FA09121 is the most cost-effective option for DTF printing. The Epson I3200-A1 offers 1,600 nozzles versus 1,080 on the XP600, native 600 dpi resolution, and significantly higher throughput for high-volume production environments. For entry-level and mid-volume DTF machines the XP600 remains the most widely deployed and supported option.
Recommended Accessories — Replace at the Same Time
When installing a new XP600 printhead always replace the cables and dampers at the same time. Installing a new head on worn accessories is the most common cause of premature failure:
• XP600 printhead data cables — replace every printhead change
• PDAEPI3200 compatible damper — fully compatible with this printhead
• XP600 capping unit — inspect and replace if worn

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between FA09121 and F1080-A1?
They are the same physical printhead — FA09121 is a later revision code of the F1080-A1. Both fit identical printers and perform identically. The F1080-A1 version on our store comes with the Epson Seal Logo. This FA09121 listing is the same printhead at a lower price without the seal.

You need the XP600 printhead data cables and the PDAEPI3200 damper. We stock both — add them to your order before checkout to avoid a second shipping charge.
