Check toner-cartridge status
Follow these steps to check the estimated life remaining in the toner cartridges and if applicable, the status of
other replaceable maintenance parts.
Step one: Print the supplies status page
1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, swipe until the Supplies menu displays. Touch the
Supplies icon to open the menu.
2. The status of all supply items is listed on the screen.
3. To print or view a report of the status of all supply items, including the genuine HP part number for
reordering the supply, touch the Manage Supplies button. Touch the Supplies Status button, and then select
either the Print or View button.
Step two: Check supplies status
1. Look at the supplies status report to 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.
2. 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.
