Operation Manual

A “Cartridge is low” or “Cartridge is very low” message displays on
the printer control panel
Cartridge is low: The printer 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.
Continue printing with the current cartridge until redistributing the toner no longer yields acceptable print quality.
To redistribute the toner, remove the toner cartridge from the printer and gently rock the cartridge back and forth
about its horizontal axis. For graphical representation, see cartridge replacement instructions. Reinsert the toner
cartridge into the printer and close the cover.
Cartridge is very low: The printer 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 printer reacts when supplies reach the Very Low state. You do not have to re-
establish these settings when you install a new toner cartridge.
NOTE: The steps vary according to the type of control panel.
