This past year I have written and printed multiple
documents from Word. I liked the feature in the printer
status window that showed both the color and black ink
levels remaining in the printer. However for the last
month or so that status is no longer showing. I checked
the printer Utility window and see nothing there either
though I successfully printed a page just today! I have
been updating my machine whenever I see the upgrade icon.
Help! Did Microsoft remove this great feature!??? What
can I do about it?

Thank you.

It sounds like you replaced your printer driver with an "updated"
version that the vendor gave to Microsoft for distribution. You should
be able to remove and then reinstall your printer with the CD that came
with it to get the old functionality back.
