Empty Ink Waste Trays
Introduction
There are two waste trays. The Purge Waste Tray is located under the Maintenance station. It
catches ink purged from either Manual maintenance or Automated printhead maintenance. The
Spit Waste Tray is located below the ink spit catcher. It accumulates waste ink from printhead
spitting.
[93] 1 = Purge Waste Tray 2 = Spit Waste Tray
When to do
Empty both waste trays weekly.
CAUTION
Wear gloves when contact with ink or maintenance materials is possible. Gloves should always
overlap sleeves. Follow the ink related Safety Data Sheets (SDS) guidelines carefully in order to
ensure maximum safety. For example use Ansell Microflex 93-260 gloves, which offer a
protection against UV inks and flush up to one hour. Pollution with other chemicals can shorten
the protection time against UV inks and flush.
Wear eye protection as prescribed in this document when performing a task or action in this
area.
CAUTION
UV inks and flush liquids can be harmful if not properly handled. Follow always the Safety Data
Sheets (SDS) guidelines carefully in order to ensure maximum safety.
NOTE
Although the carriage is oriented so that the nozzles spit into the slots in the spit catcher, some
ink will find its way onto the flat surfaces. Open the maintenance drawer to check the surface of
the spit catcher daily. If you see any ink wipe it up with a clean cloth or paper towel.
