Capping Station Maintenance
The capping station (see Figure 5-7 on page 5-9) consists of a single plate with 24 small
saturated foam pads (OIN #3012001442). The station is used to cap and preserve the print-
head nozzles when the printer is idle between images. The cleaning fluid (for 5500/6600-
series inks) or capping fluid (for 440-series inks) is pumped up to the plate to provide
continuous saturation of the pads to prevent the solvent ink from drying on the nozzles.
The capping station has funnel-shaped sections with drain holes for each of the print heads
(see "Cleaning the Drain Slots and Drain Holes" on page 5-9). During daily printing
operations, purges ensure nozzle integrity before and during prints. The ink drains through
a manifold and into a single tube down to the waste bottle. Over time, the bottle fills and
must be emptied. Notification is via the control panel.
