HP Deskjet 2700 series ink cartridge runs out way too fast

[Dom102]

Hello, 

I have a HP Deskjet 2700 Series Printer for less than 2 years. I have noticed that i purchase cartridges from HP and they run out of ink very quickly. It is no where near the amount normally used to print. My level shows low after a few prints?

Can anyone help with this issue.

Many thanks!

Same issue but I purchased from Target. I'm honestly incredibly annoyed. I just spent $40 for new ink and it's supposedly already low after printing 16 pages on draft mode.... even the color one is showing around 3/4 available even though I've only used b/w option so it should be full.

This is insane. I've printed a total of 135 pages with my current printer. Already went through the cartridges the printer came with. Bought new ones on Sunday... it's already saying 70% and 10%. Straight robbery.

And of course the printer status report printed perfectly.

Hi @melissaanne,

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

I'd be happy to help you! 

I understand that you are facing issues with the ink cartridges showing low.

Are you using HP genuine ink cartridges?

Also, try updating the firmware and see the results.
