Ik denk dat uitwasser iets is waarmee de pigmenten uitgewassen worden maar ik heb geen idee hoe zoiets in het Engels genoemd wordt...

As this is a modern addition to the printer's equipment/service I think an automatic unit is more likely than a washing booth for manual washing. However, this may not be the case for (manual) screen printing.

Washout booths

In the printing industry, you use washout booths in the process of preparing and/or cleaning materials after printing. Probably 'uitwasser' is a word used in the business. I have also found the more common word 'spoelbak' in this context.
