How to Empty the Ink Waste Tray
Introduction
The waste tray is located below the ink spit tray. It accumulates waste ink from printhead spitting,
and from performing Automatic Maintenance.
When to do
Empty the waste tray weekly. The capacity of the waste tray is approximately 1.5 liters.
Required tools
Cloth or paper towel
An empty semi-transparent 1.5 liter plastic container
Nitrile Gloves
Procedure
1. Put a cloth or paper towel in place on the floor to catch any drips while the tray is emptied.
2. Place a suitable empty container that holds at least 1.5 liters under the waste tray drain.
[63] Waste Tray Valve
3.
Turn the valve on the waste tray until it starts to drain the waste ink.
4.
Shut off the valve when ink no longer drains out (or if the container becomes full). Use a piece of
cloth or paper towel to wipe it clean as some ink can remain inside and drip out later when the
printer is in motion.
NOTE
Tip:
You can also use a funnel or a long piece of tubing that allows you to place the container on the
floor for convenience.
5.
Dispose of the waste material in a suitable, environmentally-friendly manner.
