Checking the Status of Consumables
You can check the status of your installed printer consumables at any time.
From the Printer:
If you enabled the Low Toner Indicator (usually during setup of your printer) an LED symbol at the top
of the control panel indicates the status of the toner level in the print cartridge.
•
When that symbol light is off, the print cartridge still has normal capacity.
•
When that symbol is blinking orange, a small amount of toner is left in the cartridge. The cartridge
is close to its estimated limit of use. Check that a new Xerox replacement print cartridge is
available and order one if not. You may temporarily increase the printing quality by redistributing
toner; see
Redistributing Toner.
•
When that toner symbol is lit solid orange, it is time to replace the print cartridge. See
the Print Cartridge.

1.
At your PC, open Easy Printer Manager from the Start menu.
2.
