- When all cartridges are in place, close the Callisto ink door by pulling down and out until
the door is in place.
NOTE: Whenever the door is closed, the Callisto printer goes through an ink checking
routine that may take a few moments. The Operator Panel status will change from “Ink
Door Open” to “Printer Ready” when the printer is ready.
Service Tray
The Callisto Service Tray helps to keep the stationary printhead clean by wiping off and
absorbing excess ink. When printing and when running printhead cleaning routines, the Callisto
ink system performs “spitting” and “wiping” routines to keep the printhead healthy. The
Service Tray has the job of absorbing excess ink generated from these routines.
All ink jet printers produce excess ink in a manner similar to this. The Callisto printer includes
the ink collection system as a replaceable item to extend the life of the printhead and maintain
print quality.
