Check the estimated ink levels

From the Home screen, touch the right directional key, and then touch the Ink icon to display the estimated ink levels.

NOTE: If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.

NOTE: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have to replace the cartridges until the print quality is unacceptable.

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 printhead 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 information, see www.hp.com/go/inkusage.

These all-in-one inkjet printers offer a combination of printing, scanning, copying, and faxing capabilities while emphasizing user-friendliness and efficiency.

One of the standout features of the HP B211a series is its wireless connectivity. With built-in Wi-Fi, users can easily connect their devices, including smartphones, tablets, and laptops, enabling seamless printing from anywhere within the network range. The HP Smart App enhances this experience further by allowing remote management, print job monitoring, and access to cloud-based printing services.

Moreover, the HP 6512, 6515, and 6510 series are compatible with HP's Instant Ink program, which allows users to subscribe and receive ink cartridges automatically based on their printing needs.
