The ink level detector is mounted on the printer to detect the remaining ink level. The printer considers as ink is full when a new ink cartridge is installed, and then starts to detect a remaining ink level. If you install a used ink cartridge, the indicated ink level of it may not be correct. In such case, refer to the ink level information only as a guide.
In the copy standby mode, you can check the ink status with the Color Ink lamp and Black Ink lamp.
