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.
