How do you know when to change ink

Hi,

There are two ways to check the ink levels of the cartridges in your printer.

1. There is an Ink Level Gauge in the Control Panel on the printer.

It show the ink level information for each print cartridge, four indicators for the tricolor

cartridge and four indicators for the black cartridge. It also displays a warning for print

cartridge problems.

2. To check the ink levels from the HP Photosmart Software on your PC

In the HP Solution Center, click Settings, point to Print Settings, and then click Printer Toolbox.

NOTE: You can also open the Printer Toolbox from the Print Properties dialog box. In the Print Properties dialog box, click the Features tab, and then click the Printer Services button the Printer Toolbox appears.

Click the Estimated Ink Level tab.

The estimated ink levels for the ink cartridges appear.
