A remaining amount indicator for indicating remaining amount of consuming material such as papers, toner, web or silicone oil in a recording apparatus such as a copying machine or a laser beam printer is disclosed. The remaining amount detected by a detector is displayed by a display in a first display mode until the remaining amount reaches a predetermined level, and in a second display mode after the remaining amount has reached the predetermined level. Further, the quantity of the display is reduced as the remaining amount decreases.
