Cleaning Fluid or Capping Fluid and Waste Bottles

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

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.
