In Windows ME a I was able to check the levels of ink
remaining in my ink cartridge - how do I do this in XP
 
This is entirely a function of the drivers for your printer. You can try
updating your drivers from the printer manufacturer's website and/or contact
them as to whether or not they are supporting this function in XP. If it is
supported, I would assume you would select your printer in Control Panel
under Printers and faxes, right click, select properties and see if you can
find this function.

Only if the driver supports it - it is *NOT* an XP function. If the driver
doesn't and the manufacturer isn't supporting the printer any more then
there's nothing you can do about it.
