The osmosis filter divides waterflow to cleaner water and less clean water, you need the less clean water to keep flowing and carry out all the impurities in the water or all the dissolved solids will crash out and clog the filter very quickly.

If you were running already deionized water through the filter again then you could plug the waste port and you would be fine.
