Check HP printer ink or toner levels

Check ink or toner levels regularly to estimate how much ink or toner remains. When ink or toner becomes low, consider purchasing replacement supplies to have on hand.

Install a new cartridge or reload toner when the ink or toner is depleted or no longer provides acceptable print quality.

Did you know more than 80% of Original HP ink cartridges and 100% of Original HP toner cartridges are now manufactured with recycled content? All HP cartridges are designed with sustainability in mind. Go to HP Planet Partners - Supplies recycling program to learn more.
