That is entirely a function of the printer manufacturer's proprietary
device drivers and utilities, and has nothing whatsoever to do with
Windows. Contact the printer manufacturer to obtain the requisite
device drivers and/or utility.

Install the printer maker's software for that particular model. Go to
their web site to obtain their software. If this feature is not part of
their software, you'll have to hire a programmer to write up something
for you assuming there is an API to the device that can report the
status of ink level.

Does the manual for the unidentified make and model of your printer
actually stipulate that ink level is something their software will
report?
