    Abstract: An inkjet printer is configured to purge printheads in the printer and clean the purged ink from the printheads. The inkjet printer includes a purge tray configured with a wiper to remove a substantial portion of the purged ink from the faces of the printheads without contacting the printheads. A wiper module rotates wipers through a reservoir of cleaning fluid prior to contacting the printheads to facilitate removal of the remaining purged ink from the printheads as the printheads move past the wiper module to return to a printing position.

    Abstract translation: 喷墨打印机被配置为清除打印机中的打印头并清洁打印头中的清洗的墨水。 喷墨打印机包括配置有擦拭器的清洗盘,以从打印头的表面去除大部分清洗的墨,而不接触打印头。 在接触打印头之前,擦拭器模块将擦拭器旋转通过清洁流体的容器,以便当打印头移动经过擦拭器模块以返回到打印位置时便于从打印头移除剩余的清洗的墨水。
