Print cartridge conditions
Print cartridge is low
When the print car tridge is low, the printer control panel displays the CARTRIDGE LOW message.
If the CARTRIDGE LOW message displays, but the printer continues printing, CARTRIDGE LOW is set to CONTINUE (the
default setting).
If the printer stops printing when low toner is detected, CARTRIDGE LOW is set to STOP . To resume printing, press
.
The printer will continue to display CARTRIDGE LOW until you replace the print cartridge.
Select CARTRIDGE LOW=CONTINUE or CARTRIDGE LOW=STOP from the Configuration menu in the control panel
( “System setup submenu” on page 186 ).
Print cartridge is out
When the print car tridge is empty, the printer control panel displays a CARTRIDGE OUT message. The printer
continues printing (without customer interaction) until drum out is reached, but HP does not guarantee print
quality after this message is displayed. However, if the
CARTRIDGE OUT message is a result of the drum life
being exceeded, the user has to replace the car tridge immediately, and no override is possible. This is done to
protect the printer and the print cartridge.
