Overview
This i3200 ink damper sits between the ink line and the printhead on compatible DTF printers. It helps steady ink flow, catch particles in an internal mesh filter, and reduce air reaching the head.
- For DTF printers using i3200 or 4720 printheads
- Internal mesh filter, commonly 5 μm (5 micron)
- Barbed ink-tube inlet and printhead connector
- For water-based DTF ink, including white and CMYK
Sold as a single damper. Confirm the damper style and tubing size against the part on your printer. This is not for UV or eco-solvent systems. If you're not sure this is the right replacement, contact our team with your printer model or a photo of the current damper.

Compatibility
This damper is for compatible DTF printers that use i3200 or 4720 printheads and this same clear, rectangular damper style. Some water-based i1600 and 5113 setups use a similar damper — always match the part already on your machine, including the tube size and the printhead connector.
An i3200 printhead typically uses 4 dampers (one per channel). Many DTF printers also have a white ink channel and may use a 5th damper, or 4 dampers on each head in a multi-head machine. This listing is sold as a single damper.
This damper is for water-based DTF ink only (white and CMYK). Do not use it on UV or eco-solvent systems, which need a different damper.

Installation tips
- Power the printer off and unplug it before you start.
- Replace one damper at a time so ink lines do not get mixed and the printhead connection is not left open longer than needed.
- Prime or fill the new damper with ink before or as you install it, so you are not pulling a large air pocket into the printhead.
- Seat the printhead connector fully. Push the ink tubing all the way onto the barb without kinking the line or forcing a mismatched tube size.
- Check the clear body for leaks and air bubbles. Prime or purge until the chamber is filled and has no air bubbles before you run a job.
- White ink dampers often need more frequent replacement than CMYK. When you service a printhead, replacing the full set on that head is common practice.
- If you're not comfortable working on the ink system, have a qualified technician do the swap.
