Post Epson R1800, R2400 (WIB) 
The R1800 is a wide format printer that has 2 rather than a single waste ink tube but helpfully the folks at InkRepublic put this video up on how to install it..

There's no sound but it's pretty simple to follow
Video #1 (Inkrepublic)

Video #2 (InkjetFly)

This approach should also cover the R2400 and similar wide bodied units as well.

Picture instructions are available here:

EDIT: Updated to correct link errors

Found a picture guide here:
http://www.efillink.com/Support/HowToWasteInkDrainR1800.html

... This helps fill in some of the blanks that the inkrepublic video left out.

EDIT: This guide has suffered from some corrupted images so this is out as well...

A new link to the Ink Republic guide is now available in the first post.

Another resource for the Epson R1800 provided by PDG - Piedmont Digital Graphics.

(Edit: This link has been down for the past 2 months now and is unlikely to return)
http://www.piedmont-digital-graphics.com/2006081039/epson-r1800-external-waste-ink-tank.html

This approach suggests the use of check valves to avoid back flow although this shouldn't be necessary unless you've ignored the golden rule about positioning the waste bag/tank and tubing to be as low as possible (ie: to avoid gravity pushing ink back to the pump)
