Check the estimated ink levels

You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need to replace an ink cartridge. The ink supply level shows an estimate of the amount of ink remaining in the ink cartridges.

NOTE: The HP All-in-One can only detect the ink levels for genuine HP ink. The ink levels in ink cartridges that are refilled or have been used in other devices might not register accurately.

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 device 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.

To check the ink levels from the control panel

1.Touch Setup on the display.

2.Touch Tools.

3.Touch Display Ink Gauge.

The HP All-in-One displays a gauge that shows the estimated ink levels of all cartridges installed.

TIP: You can also print a self-test report to see if ink cartridges might need to be replaced.
