The amount of ink in the ink supply box is tracked by the printer software and recorded on its corresponding
profiler. The control panel displays a bar graph with the ink levels in each ink box. When the control panel
shows that the ink is low, replace the ink box with a full ink box of the same color, and replace the profiler.
NOTE:
You may want to wear gloves (latex or nitrile) and have a paper towel handy to catch the drops of ink
that may fall from the ink tube connection during this procedure.
