how do i get alexa to tell me when my canon tr8620a ink is low? i set up the skill but nothing happens.

Prerequisite: The printer must be connected to your Wi-Fi network and powered on.

1. Enable the "Canon Ink Alert" skill in your Alexa app on your phone.
2. Link your Canon account (or create one) when prompted by the skill.
3. Discover devices in the Alexa app. The printer should appear as a smart device.
4. Say, "Alexa, what's my printer's ink level?"

If that didn't work, check that the printer's Wi-Fi connection is stable. The feature requires the printer to be in standby (0.8 watt state), not fully powered off. Also, confirm ink cartridges are genuine Canon and properly installed.

Heads up: This is solely for ink level alerts via voice. The printer lacks a dedicated mobile app for direct photo printing or advanced controls.
