Compatible print head for Epson LQ-590 and LQ-2090
This 24-pin print head replaces the original component in Epson LQ-590 and LQ-2090 dot matrix printers. It is manufactured by morepartsuppply under model number 1279490 and supplied in new condition. The part restores printing capability for users maintaining these specific legacy impact printers.
Direct mechanical installation with alignment care
The print head mounts into the existing carriage assembly using the printer's native fastening points. No soldering or firmware updates are required. The most common issue is misalignment of the 24 pins during seating, which causes uneven print density or missing dots; careful visual inspection before locking the lever prevents this.
Suits maintenance of Epson LQ-590 or LQ-2090 units
This component suits technicians or owners keeping an Epson LQ-590 or LQ-2090 operational. It is not suitable for printers outside these two model families, for users needing a different pin count, or for anyone repairing a non-Epson mechanism.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 24-pin head is firing correctly on my LQ-590 after installation?
Run the printer self-test or print a test page; all 24 pins should produce a complete, even character matrix with no missing dots.
What comes with the 1279490 print head and what must I source separately?
The box contains the compatible new 24-pin head only; ribbon cartridges, mounting screws and cables are reused from the LQ-590 or LQ-2090.
Which version of this head matches my LQ-2090 versus an LQ-590?
Model 1279490 is a single compatible new 24-pin head listed for both the LQ-590 and LQ-2090; no separate version numbers exist.
