Printer Control Panel

The message window in the printer’s control panel clearly shows toner levels with a gas gauge style display.

You can also use the control panel to print a Statistics page to review supply levels, by choosing STATISTICS PAGE from the PRINT MENU. This printed page shows the percentage of life remaining for C, M, Y, and K toners and imaging units, as well as for the waste toner box.

Status Monitor

The Status Monitor is a desktop utility that displays information about the current status of the printer and its consumables and allows you to configure various settings. It’s available for computers running Windows and connected to a magicolor 7450 using the Ethernet interface. View supply levels by choosing the Consumables tab from the utility’s display. This full-color, gas gauge-style display shows the percentage of each toner cartridge, as well as the transfer belt, transfer roller, and fuser unit remaining.

Use the Status Monitor to review supplies. Select “Order on-line” to conveniently buy more.
