The ink absorber is divided into the following four portions:
- Main ink absorber (Black): Main ink absorber for the black ink

- Platen ink absorber (Home Position): Platen ink absorber on the home position side (on the right when
seen from the front)
- Platen ink absorber (Away): Platen ink absorber on the opposite side of the home position (on
the left when seen from the front).
The main ink absorbers can be replaced in two ways, Easy Replacement or Regular Replacement. (See

The platen ink absorbers can be replaced only by Regular Replacement.

Each portion of the ink absorber has a separate ink absorber counter.
At the error indicating that the ink absorber is full, check which ink absorber is full first. Then, replace the
applicable ink absorber, and reset its counter (to “zero”).
