PIXMA G6020 Ink flush: where does the ink go?

I'm curious about how the ink flush function works. Where does all of that ink go if nothing gets printed?

Thanks, some good info here.  Mine is the G6020 also.  I understand not serviceable, but had some follow up questions.  So mine is several years old and regularly used, but the black cartridge needed an ink flush, i.e. 2 cleaning and 2 deep cleanings wouldn't do the trick.  So I went to the manual for 5200 code and the last item was an ink flush and it worked.  Used quite a bit of ink, glad there is a reservoir.  How many times (cleanings, ink flushes) can this happen before the reservoir is full?  When full, is the printer trashed at that time?  Thanks for any help.
