Abstract

An apparatus and method for monitoring and managing printer/copier consumables and maintenance status items, in which sensors, print counters and/or monitoring devices warn users of impeding exhaustion consumables and of maintenance and service requirements. Used are instructed on how to perform corrective actions by display screens detailing the status on selected items and graphically illustrating the showing the location and technique for performing the required corrective action. Toner/dry ink levels, fuser modules/oil levels, developer cartridge performance, cleaning and waste systems, photoreceptor modules and other aspects printers may be included in the managed status items. An audible signal and/or instructions may supplement the visual information provided to the user to indicate the need to service the printer, on how to replenish supplies and maintain components, and to otherwise assist in the execution of the actions taken according to the consumables and maintenance system of the present invention.
