Check the estimated ink levels
You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need to replace a cartridge. The ink
supply level shows an estimate of the amount of ink remaining in the cartridges.
To check the ink levels from the control panel
1. From the Control Panel home screen, which displays Copy, Scan, and Quick Forms, press the Setup button.
NOTE: If you do not see the home screen, press the Back button until you can see it.
2. Select Ink Status
To check the ink levels from the Printer Software
1. Click the HP All-in-One desktop icon to open the Printer Software.
NOTE: You can also access the Printer Software by clicking Start > Programs > HP > HP Deskjet 3070
B611 series > HP Deskjet 3070 B611 series
2. In the Printer Software, click Estimated Ink Levels.
NOTE: 1 If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in another
printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.
NOTE: 2 Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a
low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays.
You do not have to replace the cartridges until the print quality is unacceptable.
NOTE: 3 Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different ways, including in the
initialization process, which prepares the product and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which
keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it
is used. For more information, see
