Maintaining Your Printer
You need to complete certain tasks to maintain optimum print quality.
Checking the Status of Supplies
If the printer is connected to the network, Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool can
provide instant feedback on remaining toner levels. Enter the printer's IP address in your
web browser to view this information. You can also set the printer to send you an e-mail
alert when the printer needs supplies.
On the touch panel, you can also check the following:
• Any supply or maintenance items that require attention replacing (However, the
printer can only display information about one item at a time).
• Amount of toner remaining in each toner cartridge.
NOTE:
• If the printer is connected to a computer with Windows
