Cloud-based printing fluid subscription messages
First Claim
1. A system for cloud-based printing fluid subscription messages, the system comprising:
- a processor;
a printing device analysis module to;
calculate a fulfillment trigger value based on a printing fluid fill level of a printing fluid storage unit and a printing fluid usage history of a remote printing device, wherein the fulfillment trigger value describes a first printing fluid used level of the printing fluid storage unit that triggers an order request for a replacement supply of printing fluid for the remote printing device;
in response to determining that the fulfillment trigger value is exceeded, update a subscription fulfillment status for the remote printing device to an order triggered state, wherein the subscription fulfillment status describes an order status of the replacement supply of printing fluid;
send the subscription fulfillment status to the remote printing device, wherein the remote printing device determines whether to display a printing fluid subscription message based on the subscription fulfillment status;
calculate a trigger expected value based on the fulfillment trigger value and the printing fluid usage history, wherein the trigger expected value describes a second printing fluid used level of the printing fluid storage unit by which the order request for the replacement supply of printing fluid should be triggered, andsend the trigger expected value to the remote printing device, wherein the remote printing device displays a connection message in response to determining that the trigger expected value is exceeded and that the subscription fulfillment status is updated to an order not triggered state.

Abstract
Example embodiments relate to providing cloud-based printing fluid subscription messages. in example embodiments, the system may then calculate a fulfillment trigger value based on a printing fluid fill level of a printing fluid storage unit and a printing fluid usage history of a remote printing device, where the fulfillment trigger value describes a printing fluid used level of the printing fluid storage unit that triggers an order request for as replacement supply of printing fluid. Next, system may update a subscription fulfillment status for the remote printing device to an order triggered state and send the subscription fulfillment status to the remote printing device, where the remote printing device determines whether to display a printing fluid subscription message based on the subscription fulfillment status.

5. A method for cloud-based printing fluid subscription messages on a computing device, the method comprising:
-
calculating a fulfillment trigger value based on a printing fluid fill level of a printing fluid storage unit and a printing fluid usage history of a remote printing device, wherein the fulfillment trigger value describes a first printing fluid used level of the printing fluid storage unit that triggers an order request for a replacement supply of printing fluid for the remote printing device; in response to determining that the fulfillment trigger value is exceeded, updating a subscription fulfillment status for the remote printing device to an order triggered state, wherein the subscription fulfillment status describes an order status of the replacement supply of printing fluid; sending the subscription fulfillment status to the remote printing device, wherein the remote printing device determines whether to display a printing fluid subscription message based on the subscription fulfillment status; calculating a trigger expected value based on the fulfillment trigger value and the printing fluid usage history, wherein the trigger expected value describes a second printing fluid used level of the printing fluid storage unit by which the order request for the replacement supply of printing fluid should be triggered; and sending the trigger expected value to the remote printing device, wherein the remote printing device displays a connection message in response to determining that the trigger expected value is exceeded and that the subscription fulfillment status is updated to an order not triggered state. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
