Printer display

1message/prompt area

2supplies gauge

3print cartridge colors from left to right: black, cyan, magenta, and yellow

The message and prompt areas of the display alert you to the state of the printer and tell you how to respond.

The supplies gauge shows the consumption levels of print cartridges (black, cyan, magenta, and yellow). When a non-HP print cartridge is installed, a might appear instead of the consumption level. The supplies gauge appears whenever the printer shows the Ready state, and whenever the printer shows a warning or error message concerning a cartridge.

Accessing the control panel from a computer

You can also access the printer control panel from a computer by using the HP toolbox or the Settings page of the embedded Web server.

The computer shows information similar to what the control panel shows. From your computer, you can also perform control panel functions, such as checking supplies status, viewing messages, or changing tray configuration. For more information, see Using the

HP toolbox or Using the embedded Web server (HP Color LaserJet 3700 series printer only).
