ABSTRACT:
In a printer, periodic testing of printer ink density occurs once the number of print operations exceeds a particular threshold. The threshold is either determined from use or from statistics which summarize the performance of a particular manufacturer and ink supply. Testing results are reported to a maintenance facility and to an MIS application over a network or over a point to point link. Local warnings may be given that the ink supply is low and double printing may be used to darken the printed product until the ink supply is changed.
