@Sajath, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

Do the toner cartridges show low ink in the ink level monitor, or are they actually running out of ink as evidenced by deteriorating print quality?

 

There are a few things to prevent excess toner usage:

  • The printer should always be plugged into a live outlet.  If you use an external switch such as an outlet switch then more ink will be used at each startup.
  • Do not run cleaning cycles from the computer's toolbox or the printer's front panel.  These are rarely needed (perhaps once for each half dozen cartridges) and will use ink.
  • Printing in Draft mode may have acceptable quality while providing about 2x the pages of Normal or Best modes.  

If you still have issues, please reach out to the HP Support in your region for further assistance.

 

I hope that answers your concern adequately. Let me know!

First of all Thank you for your reply, the thing is that The monitor shows "Very  Low Toner" , I bought the printer just 3 weeks ago and printed 5 or 6 pages per day totally 50-60 pages now the printer monitor shows "Very low toner'' now I'm thinking I should have bought another brand because they are giving a fully filled toner surely my previous printer is Canon So I know that . when I'm contacting the shop where I have bought the printer they said 'the printer comes with the demo toner and only you can print up to 99 pages'. Is that True?

No, the preinstalled toner can print up to 500 pages. Could you check for any ink leaks?

 

Also, reach out to the HP Support in your region regarding the toner replacement.

 

Hope this helps!
