You do not have to replace the cartridges until the print quality is unacceptable. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. The estimated ink levels for your printer appear at the top of the screen, beside the picture of the printer. Open the HP Smart App on your mobile device.
To check the ink levels from the HP Smart App: – In the printer software, click Estimated Levels. To check the ink levels from the printer software (Windows): You can check the estimated ink levels from the printer control panel, from the HP printer software, and from the HP Smart App. HP recommends that you use original new HP ink cartridges. As you turn on the device and get ready to use it, an initialization sequence localizes it to the country associated with the ink cartridges you installed. When you unbox a new HP inkjet printer and set it up, you install a set of ink tanks that ship with the printer. Unlike other inkjet manufacturers, HP designs its inkjet hardware to use country-specific consumables. Cartridges are not compatible between different brands, and often not within the same brand. Make sure you purchase the right ink cartridges for your specific printer and printer region or have your old ones refilled.
