Mutoh Engine, UV printer head idnetification help

Hello everyone,

I believe this is a DX5 head.
The printer is has a Mutoh RJ 900c engine and this head. It is a UV solvent printer.

From my research, I could potentially do the following. Please correct me where wrong.

Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet

- this is a green connector, original dx5 from epson, or is it? (i get conflicting info from suppliers, some say its the new locked type and some say its the old unlocked)
- buy older epson r1900, 2000, 2880 and take the head out and it should work perfectly?
- buy a chinese locked 1, with decoder

I have a line on a new r2000 epson, given that it is new. Would the decoder work? or is this a mystery until the head is in my hands? ie, locked 2 and 3 can not be decoded with the chinese decoder?

I have seen red decoder and green decoder, anyone know the situation there?

Thank you, any help is greatly appreciated.
