Waste
Container
Thewastecontainercontainspartiallycuredpolymericmaterialproduced
duringnormaloperationandmaintenanceoftheConnexprinter.Forsafety
andenvironmentalreasons,thismaterialiskeptinaspecialleak‐proof,
disposablecontainer.
Thecontainerhasacapacityof10kilogramsofwastematerial—usually
enoughforseveralmonthsofprinteruse.Theprinterso
ftwaredisplaysa
warningmessagewhenthereis9kilogramsofmaterialinthecontainer,
andstopstheprinterwhenthenetweightreaches9.5kilograms.Above9
kilograms,thesoftwaredoesnotallowyoutostartaprintjob(oraprinting
activity)untilyoureplacethewa
stecontainer.Youcanmonitortheweight
ofthewastecontainerintheMaintenancescreenoftheprinterinterface.You
canalsovisuallyinspectthelevelofwasteinthecontainer.(Toaccessit,see

Thewastecontainerconsistsofaplasticcontainerinsideacardboardbox.
Youtypicallydisposeoftheentirewastecontainer—includingthebox.
Therefore,youmustassembleanewboxandinsertanewplasticcontainer
beforeyoucaninstallitintheprinter.
