4.2.3.1 Replacing the Waste Ink Pads
To keep the printhead clean and maintain quality, the printer drains waste ink
away from the printhead surface and nozzles into the Waste Ink Pads. Once a
predetermined amount of waste ink has been drained, the printer displays the
“Maintenance Call 0100” message to indicate the pads are 99% full and then
displays the “Service Call 00000100” message to indicate the pads are
completely full and need to be replaced before printing can continue.
1. Remove Paper Guide L2 as described in “Paper Guide L2 Removal” on
page 119.
2. Remove the two waste ink tubes (white, small diameter) and the one
flushing tube (clear, large diameter) from the tubes clamps.
