Print when a toner cartridge is at estimated end of life

Supply-related notifications are communicated on the product control panel, Desktop Alerts, software applications, and network alerts.

A <Supply> Low message—where <Supply> is the color toner cartridge: The product indicates when a supply level is low. Actual cartridge life remaining may vary. Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer acceptable. The supply does not need to be replaced now.

A <Supply> Very Low message. The product indicates when a supply level is very low. Actual cartridge life remaining may vary. Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer acceptable. The supply does not need to be replaced now unless the print quality is no longer acceptable. Once an HP supply has reached Very Low, HP’s Premium Protection Warranty on that supply has ended.

Print-quality problems can occur when using a toner cartridge that is at its estimated end of life. The supply does not need to be replaced at this point in time unless the print quality is no longer acceptable.

NOTE: Using the Continue setting allows printing beyond Very Low without customer interaction and can result in unsatisfactory print quality.
