1.3 Purge Unit Functions
The purge unit, using the built-in purge motor, carries out the following operations:
head-capping, head-wiping, ink-suction, and ASF-driving. The purge unit switches over
the drive for these operations by reversing the direction of motor rotation, and also by
using the drive selector lever.
If the purge motor rotates in the forward direction while the carriage is at the capping
position, head-capping and head-wiping are carried out. In this case, the wiper moves
in the direction in which nozzles are placed. If the purge motor rotates in the reverse
direction while the head is capped, ink-suction is carried out. For the suction
operation, a pump with a tube is used.
To drive the ASF, the carriage moves to the left, passing the capping position and
rotates the purge motor in the reverse direction.
