Ink leaked on inside of printer

[Teje]

Some of the CMYK cartridges have leaked onto the inside of my printer, including a piece of cabling.

How do I go about cleaning the inside of the printer and ensuring this doesn't happen again?

Kind regards,

Thomas

Really no way to avoid it happening again.  Its very common this happens.  to clean you need to remove the print head and clean it out with water.  You should be doing this every few months or replace the print head.

That is not leaking, that part of the printer on the right side is called the service station. The service station is used for printhead cleaning and maintaining printhead and to collect waste ink during that process, and it's normal to have all that ink in service station.
