[Printing-architecture] CUPS 'marker-low-levels' attribute question

Hello,

Does anyone know how 'marker-low-levels' should be reported for a
regular ink cartridge?

Should it be 0, to show that it's the minimum value and means 'empty'?

Or should it be, say, 10, to correspond with the point at which a
marker-supply-low-warning state will be triggered?

Thanks,
Tim.

Tim,

The intent is that marker-low-levels is the point at which you report marker-supply-low-warning and marker-high-levels is the point at which you report marker-waste-almost-full-warning.

Put more simply, if the marker-levels value is outside the range reported by marker-low-levels and marker-high-levels, then you need to do (replace) something soon.
