Usage
Inq allows checking the ink level of many printers with USB or parallel port interface.
At every start-up Inq detects all the supported printers, which are associated to some predefined device nodes.
Overview
The program's main window is divided into four parts from top to bottom
Menu bar
Inq has three menus : File, Settings and Help
Selector of the current printer
When the program detects more than one printer, they are added to the selector at top, but only one pf them is considered the current printer and their ink levels are shown in the central area of the window.
Viewer of the ink levels
In the central area of the window the current printer's ink levels are shown. When the mouse holds over a cartridge for a while, a tooltip is shown containing the ink name (ex: black, magenta,…) and its level expressed as per cent.
Status bar
The status bar shows some temporary messages. If updates exist, then a label is shown in the very right of the status bar and it may be clicked in order to open in the predefined browser a web page containing the updates.
