Ink waste collection

[The Hat]

The Canon heads would definitely have to fire during every head clean, otherwise how can the EPROM chip keep an accrete record of ink usage.. ?

Just on the topic of re-using waste ink I wrote an article on this some time back as it's a pretty common question (as you can imagine).

Short version, Not for me... but YMMV.

I agree with the explanations in the Printerpotty Support Q&A. I also think reusing waste ink is false economy.
