Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a body, a liquid discharge head, a liquid receptacle, an instruction device, and circuitry. The liquid discharge head discharges a liquid. The liquid receptacle is replaceable by detachably attaching to the body. The liquid receptacle stores a waste liquid discharged from the liquid discharge head. The instruction device displays an instruction and receives code data assigned to the liquid receptacle. The circuitry causes the instruction device to display the instruction to replace the liquid receptacle storing the waste liquid, an amount of which is greater than a threshold, with another liquid receptacle, and causes the instruction device to display the instruction to input the code data assigned to another liquid receptacle.

Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a liquid discharger, a discharge receptacle, and circuitry. The liquid discharger includes a nozzle configured to discharge liquid. The discharge receptacle is configured to receive the liquid discharged from the liquid discharger. The circuitry is configured to control a flushing operation of the liquid discharger. The circuitry is configured to cause the liquid discharger to perform flushing to the discharge receptacle and a sheet to which the liquid is applied, with a first flushing amount and a second flushing amount different from the first flushing amount, respectively.

Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a head configured to discharge a liquid, and a discharge receptacle configured to receive the liquid discharged from the head at an installation position. The discharge receptacle includes a liquid holder configured to receive the liquid discharged from the head, and a support configured to detachably support the liquid holder. At least a part of the support is displaceable to a detachment position at which the liquid holder is detachable from the support, and the detachment position is lower than the installation position.

Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a head configured to discharge a liquid, a liquid receptacle configured to receive the liquid discharged from the head, a moving device configured to move the liquid receptacle relative to the head, and control circuitry. The liquid receptacle includes an absorber and an absorber case configured to house the absorber. The absorber includes a slit. The control circuitry is configured to cause the head to discharge the liquid into the slit of the absorber while moving, with the moving device, the liquid receptacle with respect to the head.

Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a liquid discharge head, a liquid receiving portion, an absorbing member, a case, and a shape holder. The liquid discharge head discharges liquid. The liquid receiving portion receives the liquid dummy-discharged from the liquid discharge head. The absorbing member absorbs the liquid. The case is made of a non-liquid permeable material, to house the absorbing member. The shape holder holds a shape of the case.
