print cartridge colors from left to right: black, cyan, magenta, and yellow

The message and prompt areas of the display alert you to the state of the printer and tell you
how to respond.

The supplies gauge shows the consumption levels of print cartridges (black, cyan, magenta,
and yellow). When a non-HP print cartridge is installed, a might appear instead of the
consumption level. The supplies gauge appears whenever the printer shows the Ready
state, and whenever the printer shows a warning or error message concerning a cartridge.
