When a print cartridge nears the end of its usable life, the printer identifies the low cartridge in

 

 

the Supplies Menu (for example, 88 Cyan Low). When the printer determines a cartridge is

 

 

empty it displays 88 Color Cartridge Empty. The photoconductor and print cartridge are one

 

 

unit. This reduces operator maintenance and enhances print quality. See page 116 or
