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.

Tip You can also print a self-test report to see if your print cartridges might need to be replaced. For more information, see Print a self-test report.

If you are using a Windows computer and have a network-connected device, you will need to use the Embedded Web Server to check the estimated ink levels. For information see, To check the ink levels by using the Embedded Web Server (Windows).
