Checking the Status of Consumables
You can check the status of your installed printer consumables at any time in several ways.
From the Printer
If you enabled the Low Toner Indicator (usually during setup of your printer) an
orange LED symbol at the top of the control panel indicates the status of the toner
level in the toner cartridge.
•
When that symbol light is off (as shown), the toner 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 toner cartridge is
available and order one if not. You may temporarily increase the printing quality by redistributing
toner; see
Redistributing Toner.
•
When that toner LED symbol is solid orange, it is time to replace the cartridge. See
Toner Cartridge.
To enable the Low Toner Indicator:
1.
At your PC, open Easy Printer Manager from the Start menu (in Windows).
2.
Select the printer.
3.
Click Properties. You will be taken to the CentreWare Internet Services page for the printer.
4.
If prompted, enter the ID (admin) and Password (1111).
5.
Select Properties > System > Setup.
6.
Set the Low Toner Alert to On.
7.
Enter a percentage for the Toner Low Alert Level from 1 - 50%.
8.
Select Apply. Users will now be alerted by the orange blinking/solid Toner LED on the control panel
when the toner cartridge is low on toner or out of toner.
9.
Next set the Low Image Unit Alert to On.
10. Select the additional Alert features you wish to enable. E-mail Alert will send you an e-mail when
the printer is low on toner or needs a new toner cartridge. See the Alerts information in
Installation and
Setup.
11. Select Apply. Users will now be alerted in several ways when the printer needs supplies attention.
Checking Supplies Status from Your PC
Use Easy Printer Manager (EPM) to view a supplies status page:
1.
At your PC, open Easy Printer Manager from the Start menu (in Windows).
2.
Select the printer.
3.
From the Basic mode page (the smaller window), you can see the supply levels in the Supplies tab.
If you open EPM in the Advanced mode (large window) you will see Supplies Information just
below the device picture.
Note:
Use the Switch icon in the EPM header to move between Basic and Advanced modes.
