The supplies gauge shows the consumption levels of print cartridges (black, cyan, magenta, and yellow).
When a non-HP print cartridge is installed, a ? might appear instead of the consumption level. The supplies gauge appears whenever the printer shows the Ready state, and whenever the printer shows a warning or error message concerning a cartridge.

Changing printer control-panel configuration settings
Use the printer control panel to make changes to default printer configuration settings, such as tray size and type, sleep delay time, printer personality (language), and jam recovery.
You can also gain access to the printer control panel from a computer by using the Settings page of the embedded Web server. The computer shows the same information as the control panel. For more information, see

CAUTION
Configuration settings seldom need to be changed. Hewlett-Packard Company recommends that only the system administrator change configuration settings.
Tray Behavior menu options
The TRAY BEHAVIOR menu provides the following user-defined options:
●
USE REQUESTED TRAY: Select EXCLUSIVELY (the default value) to ensure that the printer will not automatically select another tray when you indicate that a specific tray should be used.
Select FIRST to allow the printer to pull from a second tray if the specified tray is empty or contains a different media type or size.
● MANUALLY FEED PROMPT: If you select ALWAYS (the default value), the system always generates a prompt before pulling from the multipurpose tray. If you select UNLESS LOADED, the system generates the prompt only if the multipurpose tray is empty or if it is configured for a different type or size.
●
PS DEFER MEDIA: If you select ENABLED (the default value), the printer uses HP's paperselection process. Select DISABLED to allow the printer to use the Adobe paper-selection process.
● USE ANOTHER TRAY. If you select ENABLED (the default value), the printer prompts users to use another tray when the selected tray is unavailable. If you select DISABLED, the printer does not prompt the user.
●
SIZE/TYPE PROMPT. If you select DISPLAY (the default value), the printer prompts users to confirm the media size or type loaded in the tray immediately after the tray has been loaded. If you select DO NOT DISPLAY, the printer does not prompt the user.
● DUPLEX BLANK PAGES. If you select AUTO (the default value), the printer might not flip pages in the duplexer for blank pages, which enhances printer performance. If you select YES, the printer duplexer flips each page.

Using the printer control panel in shared environments
If your printer is shared with other users, adhere to the following guidelines to ensure successful printer operation:
●
Consult your system administrator before making changes to control-panel settings. Changing control-panel settings could affect other print jobs.
● Coordinate with other users before changing the default printer font or downloading soft fonts.
Coordinating these operations conserves memory and avoids unexpected printer output.
●
Be aware that switching printer personalities, such as switching emulated PostScript to PCL, affects the printed output for other users.
NOTE
Your network operating system might automatically protect each user’s print job from the effects of other print jobs. Consult your system administrator for more information.
