Ink status levels wrong on my HP Photosmart c309a

‎01-11-2012 11:36 AM

I have  a HP Photosmart C309a and a Mac computer.  The ink levels have started to read right.  I can put a new cartridge in the morning and in the evening the level says i am half or completely out after not even using the printer.   Is there some kind of a sensor that can be replaced or what could the problem be?

Hello,

Thanks for the post.  Remember, ink levels are estimates, however, I would think a new cartridge with no printing would show more than half.  I've included a link below that addresses some of the ink level questions.  Good Luck!
