Hello, Im using my Printer (Canon Pixma IP4600) under Manjaro KDE for 2 years (only 1 day per year) and im impressed how flawless my Printer works under Linux (CUPS) without installing additional tools or drivers. But how can i check my Printer Status in Linux (CUPS), to see how many Ink is left… …

ink works great with my Canon Pixma 4950 Use ink -p usb in Terminal.

How can i see the ink status on my Printer?

AFAIK the worst that can happen if you have an empty ink cartridge is… that you print without that ink color.
