Finding ink levels on my printer

[scarlets fan]

HP DESKJET 5740

Have installed the hp driver via windows 7. How do I find out what my remaining ink levels are. On my old system I could find it via Services-Toolbox etc. but cannot find this link..

The "driver" is just to get your printer working and offers no other features.

Most printers come with "extra" software such as scanning software, ink level checking software and so on.

If the printer came with a CD/DVD with software on it then install that.

Thanks for that information. I did have a cd with the printer, but Windows will not recognise it. Any further suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried downloading HP's driver for this printer. It may have the full software for the printer, rather than the basic driver Windows has...
