Check toner-cartridge status
Check the supplies status page for the following information:
● Estimated percentage of cartridge life remaining
● Approximate pages remaining
● Part numbers for HP toner cartridges
● Number of pages printed
Use the following procedure to print the supplies status page:
1. From the Home screen on the product control panel, touch the Supplies button.
2. Touch the Report button to print the supplies status page.
3. Check the percent of life remaining for the toner cartridges and if applicable, the status of other
replaceable maintenance parts.
Print quality problems can occur when using a toner cartridge that is at its estimated end of life. The
supplies status page indicates when a supply level is very low. After an HP supply has reached the very
low threshold, HP’s premium protection warranty on that supply has ended.
The toner cartridge does not need to be replaced now unless the print quality is no longer acceptable.
Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer acceptable.
If you determine that you need to replace a toner cartridge or other replaceable maintenance parts, the
supplies status page lists the genuine HP part numbers.
4. Check to see if you are using a genuine HP cartridge.
A genuine HP toner cartridge has the words “HP” or “Hewlett-Packard” on it, or has the HP logo on it.
For more information on identifying HP cartridges go to www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies .
Hewlett Packard cannot recommend the use of non-HP supplies, either new or remanufactured.
Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence their design or control their quality. If you are
using a refilled or remanufactured toner cartridge and are not satisfied with the print quality, replace
the toner cartridge with a genuine HP toner cartridge.
