Replace the toner cartridge
When a toner cartridge approaches the end of useful life, you are prompted to order a replacement. You can
continue printing with the current cartridge until redistributing the toner no longer yields acceptable print
quality.
The following illustration shows the toner-cartridge components.

A “Cartridge is low” or “Cartridge is very low” message displays
on the product control panel
Cartridge is low: The product indicates when a toner cartridge level is low. Actual toner cartridge life
remaining may vary. Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer
acceptable. The toner cartridge does not need to be replaced now.
Cartridge is very low: The product indicates when the toner cartridge level is very low. Actual toner cartridge
life remaining may vary. Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer
acceptable. The toner cartridge does not need to be replaced now unless the print quality is no longer
acceptable.
Once an HP toner cartridge has reached Very Low, HP’s Premium Protection Warranty on that toner cartridge
has ended.
Change the “Very Low” settings
You can change the way the product reacts when supplies reach the Very Low state. You do not have to reestablish these settings when you install a new toner cartridge.
1.From the Home screen on the product control panel, scroll to and touch Supplies.
2.Open the following menus:
●
Manage Supplies
●
Supply Settings
●
Black Cartridge or Color Cartridges
●
Very Low Settings
3.Select one of the following options:
●
Select the Stop option to set the product to stop printing when the cartridge reaches the Very Low
threshold.
●
Select the Prompt to continue option to set the product to stop printing when the cartridge
reaches the Very Low threshold. You can acknowledge the prompt or replace the cartridge to
resume printing.
●
Select the Continue option to set the product to alert you that the cartridge is very low, and to
continue printing beyond the Very Low setting without interaction. This can result in
unsatisfactory print quality.
For products with fax capability
When the product is set to the Stop or Prompt to continue option, there is some risk that faxes will not print
when the product resumes printing. This can occur if the product has received more faxes than the memory
can hold while the product is waiting.
The product can print faxes without interruption when it passes the Very Low threshold if you select the
Continue option for the toner cartridge, but print quality might degrade.
