Checking Ink Levels and Replacing Ink Cartridges Before you begin a large print job, you should check your ink levels. If one of your cartridges is low, you can replace it before you start. Or you can wait until the ink runs out, replace the cartridge, and then continue the job. Checking Ink and Maintenance Tank Levels The easiest way to check ink levels is from the control panel. The numbers below the ink cartridge icons correspond to the 9 cartridge slots in the printer.
