<p>A process of, and apparatus for controlling waste ink from an ink jet printhead, transfers waste ink to an absorptive diaper (33), and at least intermittently forces air (51, 53) across the absorptive diaper (33) to promote evaporation of certain volatile ink components from the transferred ink. Waste ink may be received and temporarily retained on a plurality of spaced apart inclined louvers (23) located above the absorptive diaper (33), and air (51, 53) conveyed across and between the louvers (23) to promote evaporation of certain volatile components from the received ink.</p> |
