Ink Cartridge status while printing
OK
The Ink Cartridge is operating correctly and no action is required.
Low
The Low message is an early warning sign and it is advisable that new supplies should be obtained of
that particular color. The amount of ink remaining in the Ink Cartridge depends on its capacity, but
there is approximately 14% of ink available for the user.
Very Low
When the Very Low message is displayed, overnight printing should not be attempted. Changing the
Ink Cartridge is strongly recommended to prevent the printer from stopping halfway through a print.
There is approximately 8% of ink available for the user.
Empty
The printer will stop and will not be able to continue printing until a new Ink Cartridge has been
installed. If this occurs halfway through printing an image, you should check the quality of this image,
