3.3.5 Inksystem mechanism
3.3.5.1 Overview
The inksystem mechanism of this product is composed of the Inksystem assy,
and Maintenance Box.
The ink sucked by the Cap mechanism and Pump mechanism from the
Printhead is drained via the Waste Ink Tube and into the Waste Ink Pad in the
Maintenance Box.
The amount of waste ink is controlled by the counter in the firmware taking the
amount of evaporation into account so as not to let the ink leak out of the
printer because the waste ink exceeds the limit of the storage capacity.
Further, this product uses a mechanism by which the user him/herself can
replace the Maintenance Box.
