These ink cap pads (cap top) are designed for DX5 printhead maintenance systems used on Mutoh VJ series wide-format printers. They provide stable ink suction and tight nozzle sealing during cleaning and standby cycles, helping reduce nozzle drying, clogging, and air leakage.
Built with corrosion-resistant housing, upgraded sponge options, and improved sealing structures, this cap pad supports smooth ink absorption and consistent negative pressure control for eco-solvent and solvent printing environments.

Key Features
- Stable suction performance for cleaning and standby cycles

- Multiple variant options to match different maintenance needs
- Direct replacement design for easy installation
Use Position & Maintenance Role
- This maintenance pad or absorber is typically installed in the capping or waste-ink area to absorb ink, support sealing, or keep the maintenance station cleaner.
- A healthy pad helps maintain cleaner maintenance cycles and printhead maintenance in the confirmed setup.
- Saturated, hardened, or contaminated pads should be replaced to avoid poor sealing or unstable cleaning results.
Fitment Check
- Referenced machine models: VJ-1604, VJ-1204.
- Referenced printheads: DX5.
- Match the part shape, dimensions, and maintenance-station position with the reference component.
Recommended Replacement Timing
- Replace when the pad is ink-saturated, deformed, torn, or no longer supports clean maintenance cycles.
- Many buyers replace pads together with cap tops, wipers, or other maintenance-station consumables.
- If the machine shows poor capping, excess ink buildup, or inconsistent cleaning performance, inspect this item first.
