Hi @DavStur,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
To determine how much toner is available in your HP LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw, you can check the printer's display panel or use the HP Smart app if you have it installed on your computer or mobile device. Here are the steps to check the toner level.
Using the Printer Display Panel:
- a. Make sure the printer is turned on and in a ready state.
- b. On the printer's control panel, navigate to the toner or supplies information section. The exact location of this option may vary depending on your printer's model.
- c. The display should show the remaining toner levels for each cartridge (e.g., black, cyan, magenta, yellow).
Using the HP Smart App (if installed):
- a. Open the HP Smart app on your computer or mobile device.
- b. Select your printer from the list of available devices.
- c. In the app's main menu, look for an option like "Supplies" or "Toner Levels."
- d. The app should display the remaining toner levels for each cartridge.
Keep in mind that the terminology and menu options may vary slightly depending on your printer's firmware version and software interface. However, most HP printers provide a straightforward way to check toner levels through their control panels or the HP Smart app.
Once you have determined the remaining toner levels, you can decide whether it's time to purchase new toner cartridges. When the toner level is low, it's a good practice to have replacement cartridges ready to avoid any downtime. Make sure to purchase compatible toner cartridges for your specific printer model to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
