Abstract
A server may receive remaining amount information related to a remaining amount of color material in a first color material cartridge from a printer on which the first color material cartridge is mounted, and send specific information to an external device in a case where the remaining amount of the color material in the first color material cartridge indicated by the remaining amount information is equal to or less than a first remaining amount threshold. The specific information is for changing a state of the printer from a state in which the printing process by using a second color material cartridge to be mounted is restricted to a state in which the printing process by using the second color material cartridge is permitted.
