The Printhead Soak Kit (1060880) is used to make field repairs to a
printhead that has ink in the low vacuum line. Ink can enter the low
vacuum line when the printhead is moved while ink inside the
printhead is in a liquid state. If ink enters the low vacuum line, the
purge function will be disabled and ink will likely weep from the
printhead array.
1. To confirm whether or not ink has migrated into the low vacuum
line, remove the printhead cover and inspect the silicone tubing.
