How to check for new printer status?

 Most printers display a message on the control panel if ink levels are low. Some printers like Epson XP 3100 ink cartridges let you choose when to start printing with "low" or "no" ink. This article will show you how to check your own printer's status and what to do if it's time for a new cartridge.

If you need to check how much ink is left in a cartridge, there are three things to watch for:

·         The first sign that it's time to replace your ink cartridge is when the "ink out" or "change cartridge" indicator light comes on. It tells you that the printer thinks you need a new cartridge, but you don't have to listen at this point. Go ahead and print until it's empty. You can go for 603Xl Ink Cartridge.

·         The second sign of low ink is streaking or banding across prints-that means that there isn't enough ink to go around for an actual printout because some colours are used up before others. If you see streaks at all, put in a new cartridge immediately, so they don't appear on your following few dozen prints, too!

·         The third warning is if the text looks faded or pale instead of dark black when printed.

Conclusion

The most important part of dealing with low ink is never letting your cartridge dry out after removing it from your printer. If you want to store the cartridge for later use, put it in an airtight container so that the remaining ink doesn't evaporate and leave it at room temperature.
