Bones, The "ink waste tank" is a compartment below the scrubber that cleans the print nozzles. It collects ink every time a cleaning cycle is executed and can, indeed, become full. Never tip a well-used inkjet printer more than a few degrees or you can easily learn just how full it can get! <G> I suspect, though, that "full" is based on the number of cleaning cycles that have been executed, rather than a level sensor. It's not just Canon, either: -- Mike Hungerford http://www.chthulhu.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Papermodels II" group.
