Step two: Check supplies status
The Supplies Status Page contains information about the cartridges and other replaceable maintenance parts.
1. Look at the Supplies Status Page 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.
HP's Premium Protection Warranty expires when a message, indicating that HP's Premium Protection
Warranty on this supply has ended, displays on the Supplies Status Page, or in the EWS.
The toner cartridge does not need to be replaced now unless the print quality is no longer acceptable.
Consider having a replacement cartridge available to install when print quality is no longer acceptable.
If you determine that you need to replace a toner cartridge, or another replaceable maintenance part,
the genuine HP part numbers are listed on the Supplies Status Page.
2. Check to see if you are using a genuine HP cartridge.
A genuine HP toner cartridge has "HP" on it, or it has the HP logo. For more information on identifying HP
cartridges, go to www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies.
