NOTE:
Handle the print cartridges carefully. Dropping or jarring cartridges can cause
temporary printing problems, or even permanent damage.
Check the estimated ink levels
You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need to
replace a print cartridge. The ink supply level shows an estimate of the amount of ink
remaining in the print cartridges. Actual ink levels may vary.
TIP:
You can also print a self-test report to see if your print cartridges might need to
be replaced.
NOTE:
If the print cartridges were used before being installed in the product, or have
been refilled, the estimated ink levels on the
Estimated Ink levels
tab may be
inaccurate or unavailable.
NOTE:
Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different
ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the product and cartridges
for printing, and in print head servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing
smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more
