Checking the supply level
You can check the supply (toner) level by using the control panel, the embedded Web server,
HP Toolbox software, or HP Web Jetadmin.

1 Press M
ENU
.
2 Touch INFORMATION.
3 Touch SUPPLIES STATUS.
To check the supply level by using the embedded Web server
1 In your Web browser, type the IP address for the MFP. (See Opening the embedded Web server.)
2 On the left side of the screen, click Supplies Status. This takes you to the supplies status page,
which provides supply-level information.
To check the supply level by using the HP Toolbox software
You can configure HP Toolbox to notify you when the print cartridge is low. You can choose to
receive alerts by e-mail or as a pop-up message or taskbar icon. To check the supplies status by
using the HP Toolbox software, click the Status tab, and then click Supplies Status.
To check the supply levels by using HP Web Jetadmin
In HP Web Jetadmin, select the MFP. The device status page shows supply-level information.
Cartridge-low and cartridge-out conditions
The MFP alerts you if the print cartridge is low on toner or out of toner.
When the cartridge is low on toner or drum life
When the cartridge is low, the control panel shows the ORDER CARTRIDGE message. The
message first appears when about 15% of the life remains in the print cartridge. This percentage is
set with the intent of providing approximately 2 weeks of typical use before the cartridge is depleted.
You should have time to purchase a new cartridge before the old cartridge is depleted.
The default is for the MFP to continue printing until the cartridge runs out, but you might prefer to
have the MFP stop instead of continuing when the ORDER CARTRIDGE message first appears—for
example, if you want print quality to remain consistently high during print jobs, or if you do not want
the cartridge to run out during a long print job. To configure the MFP to stop, in the CONFIGURE
DEVICE menu, under SYSTEM SETUP, set CARTRIDGE LOW to STOP. Then, when REPLACE
CARTRIDGE appears, the MFP will stop printing. You can resume printing by pressing S
TART
for
each print job.
