Cleaning Fluid or Capping Fluid and Waste Bottles
2.1.2
The cleaning fluid (for 5500/6600-series inks) or capping fluid (for 440-series inks) is used
to supply and preserve the capping station foam pads during operation of the printer (see
Figure 2-2). The cleaning fluid (for 5500/6600-series inks) or capping fluid (for 440-series
inks) tray has a level sensing device to detect when the bottle is empty. When notification
is received from the printer, the operator must refill the cleaning fluid (for 5500/6600-series
inks) or capping fluid (for 440-series inks) bottle.
The waste bottle collects the purged ink from the capping station. The waste bottle tray has
a level sensing device to detect when the bottle is full. If the waste bottle appears full or the
printer control panel is signaling that the bottle requires emptying, then do so in accordance
with state and local laws or in accordance with the MSDS sheets (see Figure 2-2).

Ink Supply Changes
2.2
To reduce the chance of poor image quality, do not shake the ink supply bottles before
installation or during printing. Shaking does not improve ink consistency but may
introduce unwanted air bubbles into the ink system. Follow these steps to correctly replace
the ink supply bottles:
Follow the control panel message and/or go to the Ink Menu to select the color ink to install
or replace.
