Hi,

If you do not have the full feature software installed download and follow the HP Printer Install Wizard to get and install the latest software automatically:

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?cc=us&lc=en&jumpid=ex_r4155/hho/ipg/ccdoc/p...

 

Once you have the full software use the Hp software to locate the estimated ink levels, you may access it from the Windows 8 start screen by clicking the HP Deskjet 2050 icon:
