To check the ink levels from the printer software

1.Double-click the HP ENVY 5530 series desktop icon to open the printer software.

NOTE: You can also access the printer software by clicking Start > All Programs > HP > HP

ENVY 5530 series >HP ENVY 5530 series

2.In the printer software, click 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.
