Normally, P-30 shouldn't exist anymore, it has been replaced by kit P3.5 
(5-liters, all liquids):

Which should run in Jobo, CAP40 and ICP42.

Like the P30, mixing all waste solutions should neutralize them.
Price is on the P30 range, so if you have some volume to print, it's better to 
go with the P3 chemistry.
Note that P3 solutions should be neutralized separately, don't mix them ! Done 
that once, arrrrghh :-((
