The printer may be capable of reporting ink levels, but the driver needs to actually fetch them from the printer. Which driver are you using? If you aren't sure, please run the printing troubleshooter and attach the resulting troubleshoot.txt file. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Printing/Debugging#Printing_troubleshooter
Driver: "Canon PIXMA iP4200 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.5 Simplified"
