Handling device for a replaceable consumable of a printhead service station of a printing device

摘要

Disclosed is a handling device which comprises a lid, which may be arranged to cover at least partially a surface of a replaceable consumable of a printhead service station, engagement members for engaging the lid to the consumable, and a hand grip. The consumable may be replaced by engaging the handling device with the consumable while the latter is still in the service station, and removing the consumable from the service station with the handling device. The risk of getting ink on the user's hands when replacing a consumable is reduced.
