I have printed the status report however #44.Approx pages remaining only shows Magenta has 300 pages and Cyan and Yellow says Low, yet they appear to be at the same level as the magenta.  Does it mean all are low but each colour still has another 300 pages of printing available?  I'm wondering whether to buy new inks or change to a laser print as I've been told they print photos better - what do you think?  What's the pro and cons between laser and inkjet?  Many thanks Ishka

Hi @Ishka

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you.

 

The report shows the approximate ink levels in the ink cartridges. You may check it on the printer screen to re-verify.

 

The remaining pages you can print depends on if you are just printing text documents or photos.

 

You may replace the ink cartridges when the print quality appears to be fade.

Laserjet printer are used for office/home office purpose and has better print speed and print quality than Officejet printer depending on the model.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
