Disposing of waste
It is the printer owner’s responsibility to ensure that waste is disposed of in accordance with all local, state
and federal regulations.
There are registered waste management companies t hat have been authorized by local authorities to
manage waste collection and disposal and that will  manage waste management and disposal on your
behalf.
We recommend that you contact your local authorities  for a list of authorized companies, or you can search
for the nearest authorized waste disp osal company on the Worldwide Web.
Make sure that any waste disposal company you engag e for this task is able to provide you with the
necessary documentation proving their authorit y to legally manage and dispose of waste.
You will be legally responsible for failing to dispose of waste according to local, state and federal legislation.
When you have established an authorized waste ma nagement company, they will need to know the type
of chemical that requires disposal and you will need  to determine the type of agreement that best meets
your requirements.
They will need to know the common name or chemic al CAS number of the main solvent found in the
supplies. This information can be obtained on the Ma terial Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) available for all
supplies at

There are normally two types of waste disposal services. The most suitable service will depend on your
waste volume production:
● Bottle by bottle and pick up on call : this may be th
e best option for low volume production to avoid
the overheads related to arranging and ensuring se cure temporary storage. You can order these
bottles (1) as needed from your local HP reseller.
● Storage in a suitable container (2) for solvents and regular pick up: this may be the best option for
high volume waste production. An authorized wast
e management company will be able to advise you
on how this can be performed safely and in compliance with local guidelines and legislation.

General recommendations
●The HP 780 Waste Ink Bottle is specifically designed 
to resist chemical interaction with waste ink. Do
not use any other kind of container  or bottle to collect the liquid. Consult your waste management
company to ensure you are following  correct and safe procedures.
● Do not dispose of materials via th
e sanitary sewer or drains. Hazardous waste disposal is regulated
by local, state and federal regulations.
● Store the full bottle in an area that has been prepar
ed for this purpose until it is emptied or removed
by a waste management company for disposal. Cons ult your local authorities about requirements or
for advice on storing hazardous waste.
● The bottle is provided with an undetachable cap to 
close the bottle safely and securely to avoid spillage
when it is handled or transported.
● Use disposable latex or Nitrile(R) safety glov
es to handle or transport the bottle once full.
● If you are emptying the HP supplied bottle into a la
rger container, use the container for this chemical
exclusively. Never mix this chemical with other c hemicals in the same container. This represents a
serious safety hazard.
