A cleaning cavity is spaced from the printing position for receiving cleaning fluid. An adjustable vane partially submerged in the cleaning fluid and spaced from the structure and a pump delivers the cleaning liquid at a desired velocity towards the adjustable vane so that the vane creates a flow of cleaning liquid past the structure in the cleaning cavity space. The adjustable vane is positioned so as to create a desired flow of cleaning liquid which engages the structure.
