The Epson maintenance box for the WorkForce WF-4720 is the part that collects waste ink from the printer's cleaning cycles. Every inkjet flushes a small amount of ink through the printhead to keep the nozzles clear, and that ink has to go somewhere; the maintenance box is where it ends up.When the box fills, the printer stops and asks for a replacement. Fitting a new one clears the message and returns the machine to service, which is why it is worth having a spare before the printer asks rather than after.The box is a user replaceable part, so no service call is needed.
