About this video tutorial
The ink pad, ink scraper, and ink absorber foam are components of the printhead maintenance area.
Item name | Illustration | Function |
|---|---|---|
Ink pad |
| Keeps the printhead sealed to prevent prolonged exposure to air, while collecting and filtering waste ink and cleaning liquid generated during automatic maintenance, such as standard cleaning and deep cleaning. |
Ink scraper |
| Scrapes residual ink from the surface of the printhead during automatic printhead maintenance, keeping it clean and preventing color mixing during printing. |
