Check the Status of Consumables

The Supplies area of the Home window on the press control panel displays an overview of the level of dry ink / toner remaining in each cartridge. As the dry ink / toner is used, the colored line representing each cartridge becomes shorter.

When a consumable is reaching the time it needs to be replaced, a message is displayed on the Control Panel touch screen. This will indicate when it is time to order and/or install a new consumable item. With some CRUs, the screen indicates that the press may continue to run print jobs without immediately replacing the item. Otherwise, when it is time to replace it, a message appears and the press stops running.

To check the status of your consumables:

1. Press the Home button on the Control Panel. From the Home screen, notice the Supplies area showing a 1 to 100% indicator bar of the remaining amount of dry ink/toner. Remaining dry ink/toner is updated in 10% increments.

2. To display more information about supplies and their status, touch the Information button (i). The Supplies screen displays.

3. From the menu, select Other Consumables to see the status of other consumables. The Other Consumables window displays and provides information about the percentage of remaining life for each consumable.

4. Use the up  / down arrow to see additional consumables, such as the drum cartridges, the dry ink / toner waste container, trays 6, 7, 8 and 9 feeder rolls, and consumables for any additional optional devices that are configured with the press.
   
   Note: The status of the suction filter is not shown, but a message displays when it requires replacement.
