Example feed trays for a printer are disclosed. In one example, the feed tray includes a support surface to support print media, and a guide wall coupled to the support surface. The support surface and the guide wall define a feed path for the print media into the printer. In addition, the feed tray includes a fill indicator comprising a cam rotatably coupled to the guide wall about an axis of rotation that is perpendicular to the feed path. The cam includes an extension that extends radially from the axis of rotation, and the cam is rotatable about the axis of rotation between a first position and a second position. The extension is more proximate to the support surface when the cam is in the second position than when the cam is in the first position, and the cam is rotationally biased from the second position toward the first position.

Example feed trays for a printer are disclosed. In one example, the feed tray includes a support surface to support print media, and a guide wall coupled to the support surface. The support surface and the guide wall define a feed path for the print media into the printer, and the guide wall is movable along the support surface. In addition, the feed tray includes a fill indicator comprising a roller mounted to the guide wall that extends into the feed path. The roller is to rotate about an axis of rotation that is perpendicular to the feed path.

An example system includes an imaging device and a consumable storage unit. The imaging device includes at least one consumable used in operation of the imaging device and a controller. The consumable storage unit includes at least one cavity to store a replacement consumable therein. The replacement consumable is inaccessible for use in operation of the imaging device. The controller is communicatively coupled to the consumable storage unit to receive a signal indicative of presence or absence of replacement consumable in the consumable storage unit.
