When the waste ink tank becomes full
Waste ink used for cleaning the heads will gather in the waste ink tank.
When the message “Near Full” or “Full” appears ( page.6-5), immediately replace the tank
with a new waste ink tank.
• Contact your local MIMAKI distributor or call a local MIMAKI office if
you need a spare waste ink tank.
• Prepare a polyethylene tank for emptying waste ink.
• If ink is dripping, wait until it stops dripping.
• Dispose a long-term unused waste ink regardless of its amount.
STEPS:
1. Pull out the tank toward you.
• When pulling out the waste ink tank, hold the
opening of the waste ink tank with paper and
then slowly pull it out to prevent waste ink from
spattering.
• Before replacing ink, put paper on the floor to
prevent it from being stained with ink.
2. Dump waste ink into a separate waste oil can
etc.
.
• Request an industrial waste processor for
processing of empty cartridges.
3. Put the empty waste ink tank back in the ma-
chine.
